Question Have you removed yours yet?

Hehe, I have had my truck 2 mos now, and STILL have NOT removed the "manufactured at the Norfolk plant" sticker from the lower passenger side windshield.... Just haven't gotten to that point yet... Have you? How did you remove it? Razor blade? Alcohol rub?
And if you too haven't removed it, are ya gonna??

Claudia,

Your not supposed to remove it. When it blows up how are they supposed to know who to blame?

Almost 5 months now, and it remains on the windshield. I kept the plant sticker on my Ranger the entire time I owned it.

I have had mine for a year and you can still see the suction cup marks from them puting in the rear sliding window. I will have to look for the sticker tomorow.

Cool

Still got mine on the windshield. However, the sticker that they put on the tailgate of the Dealership name gets removed immediately after I get the truck home from the lot. And my power washer takes care of that no problem.

Welp i guess im the only one that DID remove this sticker. I guess i just like a clean look.

Claudia,
The manufacturing plant sticker peeled right off with no fuss for me...its the StarGuard stickers on the side windows you have to watch out for! I used a razorblade to start them,peeled them off after i had lifted about 1/4 of it, then scrubbed the adhesive off with a;little WD40 on a towel.

you know, I've actually given it some thought as to removing it, but just can't seem to do it. Mine has a nice picture of a SD on it and of course, Made in Kentucky at the SD factory. Besides it's on the passenger side and I'm rarely over there

Heck no! Even after the Tint job, I glued the Sucker back on! I'm proud of that little blue sticker!

Your guys' are on the windshield? Mines' on the right hand back window. Both of my trucks are that way. I can see why you guys don't like em on the windshield.
