just use really really hot soap water for the stickers, give them a good soak then use a sponge and credit card to get them off
as for the hazard light, pop out the blanking plates at the end then push out all the buttons and put them back in to check they are in properly. also as there is no headunit there put your hand up behind it to check no wires are getting trapped.

As Jim has said i used hot water and soap to remov stickers sometimes a quick flick over with the hair dryer to can help then give it a good polish afterwards making sure there is no residue left.
As for the hazard push it out and press it in and out a few times make sure it is actually working first then make sure nothing is stopping it when your putting it in wires etc.

What he said ^^^^. Hair dryer and they'll peel right off, then afterwards use some autoglym tar remover and just rub it with some pressure and that should get rid of the little bits and the lines where the dirt and stuff is.
Looks decent, baaddd times about the problems. Told you you should of bought mine  lolllllll. Did you not try out the central locking or headunit speakers or anything when you went to get it?
