However, I had the "door" come apart on the driver's label and because it is metal it sliced my finger. Blood all over my hand. I put a bad review because of it.
Unfortunate really, as they work perfectly.
I'm trying to find an SVG file of this type of thing. There are a ton of people selling them, but I have a vinyl cutter and can do that myself -- I just don't feel like designing it, too.
Yup, this was the first mod I did to my car after buying it, actually installed 2 hrs after picking it up.
I still get the occasional "How do I open the door?" question but I just tell them to push the "Open Door" button. So far no one has grabbed the Emergency release yet.
Public service: Teach your family (or regular riders) where the Emergency release is, just in case, and tell them never to use.
I got the stickers after an incident where my wife used the emergency door release latch instead of the button. There was an error message on the M3 screen and I gently told her not to do that again.
So I would say the stickers saved my marriage. They were over priced at $10 when I bought them but now that they are under $4 it seems like a fair price.
Follow up. It has definitely reduced passenger user error. Installation tip: use a tweezers to apply. Reduces crooked application especially for those of us who don’t have the hands of a surgeon
I bought them when I saw them on Amazon. They definitely help. The instinct to grab that manual release is just too strong, it's right where so many door releases are. If the passengers will pause just the least bit I can point and they say "oh, yeah" without providing expletives.

@ Chewbacca, I got ones from amazon that look good (there are a few brands like these): https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07MHLLNKS?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

It's always the first thing I tell new passengers about. The second thing is, "Headrest!"
