The secret is to push a credit card under the front edge and push backwards towards the rear of the car, which bends the retaining clips back ......then ease the assembly out by pulling the front edge towards you. The credit card doesn't mark the paint.

Chris.... try some Fairy Liquid... neat. That usually breaks down gluey residues. Let it soak well in, then rub with a sponge.

Will try this, & then some tar remover as a last resort.
