I used a credit card to get the super strong military stickers (they are STRONG) off, and also to get some emblems off when I had my MR2. Then you get some goo-gone to get rid of the sticky stuff.

get a flat razor blade, spray windex on sticker and slowly work the blade under the decal. be sure it's wet otherwise the adhesive will smear all over the glass and is a pita to get off. when you're finished, you can clean it up with some goo gone

Re: how to remove my decals (cre18)
WD-40 is the shizzzz.
also try nail polish remover to remove the stuff left behind after using a razorblade - stinks like hell but works great.
but dont get that stuff on the paint - because it might dull the finish

i took fishing line and wedged it behind the emblem and worked it off, then used simple green to get the adhesive off with my fingernail. Than I waxed. This was for a car dealership emblem though.

NOOOOOO RAZOR BLADE! It WILL scratch your car no matter how careful
this is what I did to remove my pinstripe and other crap
1. Hair dryer or heat gun. Heat up a small section.
2. You should be able to peel it off with your fingernails, pick at a corner until it comes up
3. Heat and then peel the rest of the decal off
4. Automotive goo gone should take th gunk off
But it should be ALOT easier since the decal is on your windows and not the car body itself

if you scratch your window with a razor blade while trying to remove a sticker, you are a **** ****.
i have taken off plenty of stickers, on contoured windows, convexed, you name it, and have never scratched anything.
