well a frt plate on a vette looks ugly anyway so why not do double ugly.

 

I recently got my ez pass and I refused to stick that hideous white box on my windshield, so I just keep it in my center console and when I reach a toll booth, I just hold it up against the windshield and it works perfectly. Its made caravaning with other fellow corvette guys across state lines much easier, right Sam?

 

Mine works fine here in Houston.stuck right beside the mirror as high as I could get it.I guess it does,been thru plenty of times and no problems so far.

 

I have one of the license plate mounts that when I am in the vette I prop it up on the defroster outlet inside the car and it works 95% of the time. I have the unit because of my 2000 CRV where I velcro it outside underneath the windshield wipers.

 

I was told that my EZpass would not work when I got my vette.
I have it in the glove compartment and when I go through the tolls, I place it on the windshield. I have no problems.

 

Mine works right through the roof panel. It's hidden behind the visor
I use it every week.

 

I've got one of the license plate mount transponders velcroed to the top of my radiator shroud, on the driver's side. Works like a champ!

 

No problems here. If Sonny Corleone had EZPass, he still would be alive

 

I have been using an EZPass for a year in my 99 FRC with no problems. I installed it on the top of the windsheld directly to the right of the mirror mount. Works great!

 

Now that was funny!

 

I use the suction cup holder, and it's mounted right in front of the mirror.

Haven't had any problems.

 

So what if you stopped at the coin toll window and said to the operator, "Hey, these coins are from out of my other car. Are they still good to use for this one???"

 

I can offer some suggestions as I have researched and implemented this technology at work. The ezpass transponder is an "RFID tag". Radio Frequency IDentification has been around for many years, but has only recently (last 5-10 years) gotten popular with more advanced/cheaper production methods.

Anyway, inside the tag you will basically find a small RF transponder and a battery. RF does not like to be directly next to metal, so, for example, attaching the tag to a flat metal surface would be the WORST place to put it (ie metal film on windshield). Ideally, the tag should be at least 3"+ from any metal surfaces.

I would look to see where the RF antennas are at your local tollbooths, mine are towards the left side - you should see an arm with a small antenna at the end. place the tag towards that area.

As the bodies on our cars (I have a z06) are fiberglass/plastic, this should provide only a small reduction in signal strength/path if the tag were to be mounted inside the car, either in the interior (under the roof as someone mentioned) or even under the hood. I would guess that the best place is probably towards the front of the engine compartment, under the hood, away from as much metal as possible. I believe the tags are air/water tight, so this is fine to do - place it in a ziplock if you are worried about it. When velcro'ed or tie-strapped down, make sure it is in the same orientation as it would be if it were on the windshield - this will make a difference.

Give it a try, I bet it will work great. Please post results!

 

I have e-z pass mounted on my windshield and it works fine on the GSP, NJPKE and the PA tunnels

 

I actually have mine installed on the back of the rear view mirror, on the passenger side of it.

From outside, you can see it slightly, from inside driver, nothing at all.

Works every time.

I just toss mine up on the dash before going through the toll... Hit the gas on the other side and it automatically comes back to me and goes back into the arm rest......

 

Thanks for all the advise.
I'll try everything.
Something's gotta work.

 

I flash mine out the window ... if it is raining or I am lazy . I hold it behind the glass .. works every time .. Bolt it to the front .. glue it to the window ... these people must all drive pony cars .. ugh .

 

Same here (Nice car btw )
