Maybe a heat gun to soften it and then some of that Tar remover/spirit.

If it's being left bare it won't look great until you give it a coat of paint anyway IMO.

Combo of heat, white spirit and if not - nitromors.

TCut and a scouring pad might dislodge it.

Best to heat it up first, easier to penetrate the glue that way. Then spirit, t-cut, panel wipe, fuel, tar remover etc

Put your seats back in. lol

Try some Cillit Bang, tends to be very good on most things metal.

Tar and glue remover IMO. Also I agree, it needs painted properly as that coat is thinner than Calissta Flockhart.
