Default relocating the stickers on the door jam

I really dont like having the stickers there when the doors are off, it just looks funny to me. Does anyone know how I could remove them without causing damage to the sticker and move it somewhere else, like underneath the jack in the cargo area. I want to keep it since it has important stuff on it for the next owner. Also, is it even legal, or does have to be there since it has vehicle weight, tire pressure, etc? Thanks.

If you want to keep the stickers I wouldn't worry about sticking them somewhere else, just peel them off and sandwich it between some wide clear tape ( cheap laminate) so it doesn't get all ripped up and keep it in the bag with your owners manual.
It's not illegal to take stickers off, unlike a mattress tag.

Just cover them up with a strip of colored electrical tape that matches your JK.

Take it off carefully with a heat gun and tape it to the inside of the glove box.

its not illegal to remove the mattress tags... it is illegal for the dealer to remove it before they sell/deliver it to you.

I used heat on my TJ's and stuck it to the inside cover of the owner's manual.

Why can't they just stick them to the door like normal cars do? Is it because we run doorless, and they have to be there for legality?

Either way, heatgun or hot sun works best.

From Fletch:
"I'm with the Mattress Police. There are no tags on these mattresses."
