Default What else is there?

I'm taking the molding off of my car and I'm down to one more strip. Well the thing is I have the molding off but I can't get the tape off. I've tried Goo Gone, I've tried scrubbing it with a brush, I've tried a hair dryer and peeling it off. These things worked for all the other pieces of molding, but this last one is fighting me. What else is out there that won't damage the paint?

Funny...no, really. My car looks like @$$ right now with a long strip of ugly tape and I need to get it off.

Also, where can I get 6000K fog lights? Mine are burnt out so I want to upgrade them. And can someone remind me, is 9006 low beam and 9005 high beam or vice versa? And whats a cheap sight for those 6000K as well?

I tried the hair dryer trick, it didn't work but it worked on the other side. I did this side about 3x times longer with the hair dryer and still nothing. Is there some type of pad or eraser I could use?

Something like that should work. If it says it can take off pinstripes and decals then it can take off double sided tape. And I could give the hair dryer another try. And about the lights too, I know the fog lights are 885, but will 880 work? I found LEDs that are only 880 6000K.

Lol yeah, I saw the link at the bottom of the screen and said "Hmm I wonder.." lol well it looks like I will order the fogs from them, and while I'm at it, I'll order the interior lights to do the swap as well.

I did this: Silverstar bulbs in all 6 beams and did the modification to have all 6 beams on at the same time.
