Sticker removal/Light purchase?

1. What is the best way to remove bumper stickers from the aluminum siding without messing up the finish?
2. Where best place to order turn lights/break lights for 2006 Bambi 19' SE. Thanks

Re #1, use a steam iron with a towel covering the decal (make sure there's plenty of steam). Let it steam about 30 sec to a minute. Just took off about 8 decals from a previous owner. Works like a charm.

I use liberal application of WD-40 for clean-up.

Goof Off removes adhesive and adhesive residue the best I've found. I get it at Ace.

My trailer doesn't carry the burden of showing a good clearcoat. Before I'd try anything aggressive on a good clearcoat, I'd test it in an inconspicuous location like behind the roof air conditioner. A product like Goof Off removes dried paint, so it just might remove something like clearcoat . . . just saying.

I use it to get the label off peanut butter jars.

My trailer didn't carry any bumper stickers. I once got some pinstriping remover from an auto body shop supply store to remove pinstriping without removing the paint on the car. That worked beautifully to remove pinstriping.
