I'm gonna use a hair dryer as it's all i got but basically heat them up (carefully) and start to prise it off, and keep heating the bit your trying to remove. Once it's off, wash off all teh dirt then i just use T-cut to get the foam off. Or roll it off with my finger till theres less.

You can use a good hairdrier to warm the glue, then get a credit card or similar to slide underneath.

AG Intensive Tar Remover is good for getting left over glue off.

It's a real pain in the arse to remove them. So much so on my old car, I only bothered to remove one.

fishing lines mint then use glue and tar remover to get the glue off b aware tht your paint work will hav faded so it may leave lines where they used 2 b
