Removing FX4 stickers?

A friend of mine has a new F150 FX4 and would like to remove the FX4 stickers on sides of bed to replace them with a set he found on the internet with an american flag set.

What is the easiest/safest way to remove them and the glue residue?

use of a hairdryer?

thanks

a hair dryer set on LOW heat should work fine just be careful not to get it to hot

A hair dryer set on low, peel them back slowly, use rubbing acholol or glass cleaner to remove any glue, then re-wax should work fine.

I have found that Meguiars one-step cleaner/wax does a good job removing decal residue.

I just pulled mine off. There was no sticker residue or anything.

If it's a new truck - just have him peel the stickers off - using a blow dryer will generally leave glue residue behind (that Meguiers will easily remove) but if it's an older (baked on sticker) then he will need to use a blow dryer.
