I just removed my vehicle inspection sticker last year, and here's how I did it. First, set your hair dryer to the hot air setting and blow it back and forth over the sticker for 2-3 minutes to soften the adhesive on the back. Then, use a fingernail or plastic card to gently lift one corner from the edge and slowly peel it off—don't rush, as haste can tear the sticker. If you notice any adhesive residue after removal, spray some alcohol or an adhesive remover (available online), let it sit for half a minute, then wipe it off with a damp cloth. Avoid using a blade—I once tried scraping it off quickly with a blade and ended up leaving a fine scratch on the windshield. After cleaning the glass, I recommend using a static cling sticker for the new label next time—it saves a lot of hassle. The whole process takes just over ten minutes.
