Just wondering where the best location to hang an ez-pass would be. I had a jk years ago and had some issues with the location where it wouldn't always work. The new JL has active cruise with the box above the rear mirror so that is out. Does anyone place it on the lower center of the windshield ?

In my escape, Ive always had it to the right of the rear view mirror so I donā€™t have to look at it.

plan on putting it in the same place when I get my Wrangler.

You can pretty much put it any where, even the glove compartment or the center console. How do I know? Because when we were moving my fiance at the time had hers from her car in a box in the back and couldn't figure out why she had charges on her account (she had just totaled her car) and we were essentially paying double for tolls.

In IL we have a license plate transponder as a option if a windshield location is not good. Check you State to see if it's a option for you.

Iā€™ve placed mine towards the bottom center of the windshield behind my cellphone mount. No issues there.

Anywhere on your windshield would work. I go through battery park and midtown daily. If your plate is linked to your ezpass account and the pass wasnā€™t readable for whatever reason itā€™ll be debited from that account anyways.

Get one of those suction cup mounts and stick it anywhere while your on a toll road, then take it down? Just a thought.

I took the rubber liner out of the little dash area and installed a GoPro mount in the middle. I lay my EZPASS in the dash cubbie to the right of the GP mount. All of my reads have been perfect. I do not affix my EZPASS with velcro. I leave it loose and lock it up when it is not in use. I don't like the fact that thieves have direct access to my checking account via the unit. I also limit my account to $25.

I just use 3M dual-lock and put on the passenger side behind the mirror (2018 so no ACC) where I can't see it. We only use it to travel through CHI, so we swap out the cars. All of them have the 3M dual-lock strips on the windshield and we pull off the transponder and put it on the other car that we'll be using.

I glued mine inside the front license plate bracket. Fits perfectly and no one knows its there.
Except you guys.
