Removing those air-bag warning stickers.

Is there any way to remove those air bar warning stickers on the sun visor without screwup up the cloth?
I can't understand why a company would go to all those lengths to make the interior of a car look so nice and screw it up with those warnings.
I'm sure it's a law and also a liability issue but I should be able to remove them if I want, it's my car dammit!
Thanks for any suggestions.

I haven't been able to get those things off, my next move is to cover them up with something else. I also spoke to the dealer about ordering new ones and I was informed that it's federal law that requires them and if I ordered new ones, they would also have them annoying stickers on them.
:(

From the PTE Forums and PTLady:

HOW TO REMOVE - SUN VISOR WARNING STICKERS SAFE

Use an iron set to medium and a damp white cloth. Place the cloth on the visor sticker, and iron till hot-steamy. Test the edge. With no resistance, peel slow while hot. WA LA OFF CLEAN...do not use the iron directly on label or it won't work

and followup comment:

It came off clean. If you let it cool and some adhesive is on the visor, just use the dampened cloth and re-heat. It will stick to the cloth and not the visor. (pull off while hot) mine is clean as a whistle.

ps there is no mark where it was, can't tell it was ever on it. I have done a few for friends

Another alternative is to buy Vinyl Ovals from Streamline Design (http://www.streamlinedesign.com/ptcruiser/ptinterior.html) or Windshield Visor Plaques from PTDIY (http://www.ptdoityourself.net/ptwvplaqueguide.html)

Streamline Design can also make up a custom design or logo vinyl ovals for minimal cost.
