Ya but when they get old sometimes they become brittle and fall apart when you try to take them off...

OK Everyone !!!

I have successfully used "GOOF-OFF" to remove all the tape adhesive from the rear inside window.

With no harm to the defroster grid. This is a good one to remember.

FYI, I could not take it back to the dealership because I bought in New Jersey and I'm from maryland. Too much of a hassle to drive it 3 hours in each direction, not to mention the cost of gas ! I did not really notice it when we bought it. It's out of sight, out of mind thing.
