Default Removing Velcro from dash

Hello,
We are proud new owners of a 2004 Pilot. We;ve had it less than 24 hrs
Anyhow, the prior owner had a carpet cover on the dash and it was velcro'd. Does anyone know how to safely remove the velcro from the dash?

Thank you
Tony

May be a little difficult to remove cleanly since it is on the dash where the sunlight has probably baked it on permanently. Try using a fishing line between the velcro and dash to separate the adhesive.

Yeah, after that get some stuff called Goo Gone to get the remaining sticky residue off.

If that stuff isn't handy, vinegar or WD-40 can also dissolve adhesives.
