   Really easy matey, I have taken mine off!
   
   Just a case of pulling the window seal away, pealing the sticker off & getting some sticker remove to the left over stickiness! Looks quite good, will try get a pic of it if you want

   use bug and tar remover on the glue works a treat and you can use the rest to clean the bugs and tar off!!

    mate, use a hairdryer to heat up the plastic before peeling it off - makes it a lot easier
