I stupidly put some vinyl stickers on my MY15 Defender and I want to remove them. I've done a google search and found a whole lot of conflicting information so not sure what to do. I have gloss paint. Does anyone have any experience with removing stickers without damage?

Use a heat gun on low setting.
Once the stickers are warmed up, pull them off.

I've got a hairdryer. Would that work?

Yes, it would.  Once the stickers are off, use tea tree oil to remove any glue residue.

You can get plastic razor blades. e.g.
Toledo Plastic Razor Blades 100 PK 301249 | eBay (http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Toledo-Plastic-Razor-Blades-100-Pk-301249-/252183105220?hash=item3ab748cec4:g:UDYAAOSwu4BVjaA E)

eucalyptus oil works as well
