Best Way M8 Is To Heat Ur Side Strips Up With A Hair dryer so there hot to touch then peel it off and do the same with the black sticky pads underneith and then use methilated spirit to get all the glue off

Yeh Toms Ryt It Takes A While To Do So Be Patient, Especially When Take The Black Sticky Bits That Hold The Strips On But If Your Slow Peeling And Keep The Hair Dryer On Them to Heat The Glue Up They Come Off A Dream
