Ugly airbag warning label on sun visor
On both sides of the passenger side sun visor, there is a big warning label about the airbag (do not use child seats when it's enabled or something). It is large, white and yellow, and does not match my otherwise dark interior. When the visor is down, it really stands out seen from outside of the car.
I would like to get rid of these labels, but they are printed on, not stickers. Are there easier ways than replacing the entire visor to get rid of them? |

I'm definately going to check my dealer for a price for the lhs-rhd-visor, because that warning is for sure damn ugly!

It *should* be this one:
51447319158 Car: F20 2012 RHD, conditions: SA775A (black ceiling) = YES, color = black. Unfortunately realoem does not list a price. Hence me going to the dealer tomorrow (if I don't forget it )

Visited a dealer today, but parts-guy was already gone. I'll get a call with the price tomorrow. Another guy in a german forum already got a quote from his dealer, being 52,30€ (part only). I'm expecting my quote to be close or identical.

Well it might be one of those glued on rubber-stickers, but I really didn't see a border either, it really seems printed on. Also I'd like to be able put the original one back in before I return it to BMW in a couple of years .

These tutorials are for printed decals.
In this case this method is not for you cause alcohol will damage the decal and make it unreusable. |

Just got a call from the dealer: 46,70€ for the right visor (rhd, black). Seriously considering it.

Take a photo of the warning label with accurate measurements, then take to a local sign/printing company to reproduce with dark background and pale text. You can then simply fix over the original.
