  • If some of the other posts around the forum are anything to go by, I am surprised people haven't suggested yet to take your car back to the dealer and reject it..

Where's the light?

Is it in the sun visor or on the roof lining?

 

In the roof like in the golf 

I solved the problem:

I purchased some matte black vinyl film and covered the warning stickers.

No vRS logo though...

I did this today - matt black vinyl, cut to size. Covered the warning stickers and can hardly see the vinyl. Only problem is, in the heat today they have both pealed and bubbled. Not sure if it will re stick or not :(

I've had no problems with the stickers. These were a premium quality though.

No, there's no wiring for the illuminated sun visors:

So ! Safety warnings are obtrusive , some people think that, some people don't.Some people are not bothered.  Is it in the interests of safety to remove them ? Most cars have them and you understand the warning so you don't need it but other people might need to know.  We can be assured that more concerning issues will eventually come our way.
