FS: GT3/GT3RS Alcantara Sun Visors

And if I don't have to sell the visors, that'd be great. I'll try to get the stickers off and see how it goes.
Gonna take the stickers off the back of the seats too

The stickers on the buckets are even easier- there is nothing to leave a trace there unless you don’t clean up all the adhesive. Start with this if you doubt your ability to do it, giving you confidence that you can do it on the visor too.
Now, the plastic visors are a different story, I’ve had less success with those on different cars.

This is the other way, reversible and idiot proof.

Did it on my GT4. Easiest was - soak a paper towel folded to the size and shape of the sticker in rubbing alcohol. Flip the visor so sticker is facing upwards and leave the paper towel on top of the sticker. Go have a beer and comeback, the sticker will peel right off in one piece.

Ok I'm officially inept. I just spent 30 minutes trying to get the wiring clip disconnected to no avail. How the hell does this thing come off? I tried pulling from all directions, there are a bunch of different tabs on it and I'm not sure which one to manipulate to release. My best guess is it has something to do with that little glint of metal shining through the hole in the connector body. Like that's the locking mechanism? Anybody want to help me out lol...
I tried using a tiny pick to push it, pull it, slide it... nothing.

Yeah, as much as I love hot-boxing in the car with isopropyl alcohol, I'd rather just do it on a table. Other people who did it said it's much easier that way. Gotta remove them anyway if I mess it up and buy new ones without stickers...

I'm guessing the entire connector snaps into that recess. I'd pop the entire black connector out so you can view it from all sides of it. Once out, the connector probably can be pulled apart into two pieces.
I don't think that clear/metal piece plays a part in separating the two halves.
I also don't think you can separate the halves until the connector is removed from its seated position.
But, I've not removed a visor like this, so I could be wrong!

I found a video of someone explaining how to do it, but it's not working that way.

Gotcha, but the way I did it (soaking a paper towel in IPA and leaving it on top of the sticker), I didn't have to sit in the car, just leave it and come back. Good luck either way.

As mentioned, flip up the visor and do it in the car. Use the paper towel swayed method and plastic bag. See thread. One guy above even did it on alcantara visors.
Taking the visors off can be a pain.
