Hair dryer or a sponge and very hot water.

I've been looking for replacement decals for my Harmony without luck. I'm not convinced that anyone supplies them anymore, I may end up going for some aftermarket decals eventually. If I find a supplier of the OE decals I'll let you know...

May be worth contacting them about the other stripes.

I'll just mention having Sticky Stuff Remover to hand when tackling these sort of jobs. Winter isn't the best time to tackle this sort of a job, a hot air gun will help as will having the heat of the sun soften the adhesive backing. Lift up even a small corner of the decal, add a spot of SSR and chances are in a few minutes you can unpeel a bit more to keep repeating the process.

A toffee/caramel wheel is what is normally used to remove vinyl/stickers etc at bodyshops
