Posts: 562 SC, Bluffton | I have a suction cup holder attched to the inside of the windshield. I work in a pretty safe area, and never remove it. I have 4 EZ passes. One for the truck, a 3 for the motorcycles. If the wife is coming to the island to visit, she needs to get one off one of the bikes I am not riding that day. |

Interesting that it works from in there. Any other mounting options without spending a fortune on ugly mounts? |

| Have mine velcroed to the bottom of the windshield. Stays there all the time and when I lower the windshield, it gets locked in so it can't be removed/stolen... |

Posts: 348 Sturbridge, Mass | I tried several different locations.
Inside glove box, jacket pocket, holding in my teeth. I even velcroed it to the underside of the headlight bucket...
All were intermittent hit/miss. The lovely Commiewealth of Mass gives you 2 free passes if it doesn't register, then it charges you a buck everytime thereafter. Customer service specifically states that there is no guarantee that the pass will work, it is up to the driver to look for the light.
I know have it velcored to the top of the GPS unit. This avoid the solar glare if it was on the windshield (IMO).
So far, so good

| The really scary part is that while trucking my broke harley back from sturgis a few years ago the ez pass in the back of an enclosed herts truck in the trip trunk of the harley registered and i was charged the tolls and we can't make them work in our teeth. go figure. |

| Another option is go to Bed, Bath & Beyond. They sell an EZ PASS transponder holder with suction cups. The transponder slips into the shell and then can be mounted to the windshield. Works really well and it's secure. I move it back and forth between my bike and the car. Costs about 5 bucks. Vince. |

| On the dash works fine for me.
An EZ Pass story. Last year, when I requested the EZ Pass for my motorcycle (from EZ Pass NY), I specifically asked for a Motorcycle transponder (some tolls are less for motorcycles than cars). Last month, I was heading down to the Outer Banks, on Route 168 in Virginia. There is one toll on that highway that is easily bypassed, saving the $2 toll. Before the exit, I saw that the motorcycle toll was .50, so I said heck with it and went through the toll. When I looked at my account a few days later, I was charged the car rate of $2, so I sent customer service an email asking what's up. Their response was two parts, first, I had a car transponder, not a motorcycle one, and second, even if I had a motorcycle one, Virginia would have still charged me $2, because to get the motorcycle price, you have to either pay cash, or have a Virginia motorcycle toll plan! WTF! When I asked them why they sent me a car transponder when I asked for a motorcycle one, they were nice enough to offer to swap it out. The new one has a big "M" on the windshield side, so it can be seen through the window that it's a motorcycle unit.
