What is the best way to remove stickers from glass if they don't come off easily?

Specifically, some small stickers on the outside of the rear hatch and some sticker glue remnant on the inside of a windshield.
 
I agree with prov4re, except I remember the product being called Goo Gone, and there is at least one other product of the same formulation, under a different name. It is a clear yellow oily citrus liquid that works better if you let it sit for awhile, then apply multiple times as needed. It will remove all the stickiness. Be careful around any defrost wiring, of course.

Was it "Goof-Off"?

Goo-gone is relatively benign - I would not say the same for goof-off, which a much harsher solvent. Goof-off can do some major damage & I would not recommend its use anywhere near an NSX - it will melt plastics as well as paint - use with caution!
For stickers, Goo-Gone is a great product & I highly commend it; Goof-off has its uses but must be very careful about the application.
No affiliation with either, etc . ...........
 
The easiest way I found was just to use razor blades and rub the remaining sticky parts with rubbing alcohol (or your girlfriend's makeup remover.
it will clear up everything !!! most Goo removal solutions does contain a high % of alcohol I believe... my way will work great on windows and glass, do NOT use it for body panels :D :D :D:D
 
Thanks for all of the suggestions. The stickers on the hatch pulled right off, perfectly. The sticker on the inside left some glue, which came off with 70% alcohol and a little elbow grease.
