I had the same stripe. I used adhesive remover and a plastic putty knife. Soak a corner of a shop towel and rub then scrape. Mine came right off with a little work. There are several write ups on here also.

Ya I did a search on it and did not find anything about how to use the tool, just that it worked. I was just trying to find out the best way to use the tool, and if there is anything I should look out for.

EWAYota thx.

Well it's just that the stripe is showing some age. I would not mind it if it was new. Anybody know if I can find a new matching stripe?
