Removing dealer sticker

The dealer has put a sticker in my rear window right in my sight line for the rear view mirror. I guess I should go and complain. :mad:

Anyone Know how to remove it easily. It is a tinted window and I am concerned that I may damage the film.:confused:

Many Thanks, Bob

    Was it there when you viewed/test drove the car? If not then ask for it to be removed immediately and any damage to the window repaired. If it was then I think you are on your own.

    Back to the dealer and get them to remove it - you aren't a free advert for them.

    When I use to help out at a friends vinyl factory (making signs), we use to use lighter fluid to break down old adhesive. Not sure if this would damage the tinting?

    You could try warming it with a hair-drier to melt the glue and then gently peel it off.

    But as its a new car I'd take it back to the dealer and make them do it so if the tinted window is damaged they repair it.
