Out of curiosity, why do you have an EZ Pass? It's not like there are many tolls in Central VA (one in Richmond, a couple in the Hampton Roads area) and the Powhite Pkwy in Richmond can easily be navigated around.

If the glass tint/coating is the issue, that won't help. So far the plate mounted tag is working great for me.

The OP was looking for an alternative to mounting on the glass to avoid adhesive residue and improve aesthetics, not because of signal interference.

The OP was from 2006, the thread had moved on to interference in reading the tags mounted on the glass and using plate mounted tags. No biggy, didn't realize who you were responding to.

You are curious! I commute to Philly.

Ah okay, I see. We used to have EZ Pass when we lived in Maryland, but once they started charging $1,50/month "Maintenance Fee", we ditched it since we just don't drive to the Northeast anymore.

Hmm I didn't know they charge a maintenance fee. I guess I need to look at my account. All I know is my Amex is automatically charged to keep a minimum balance.

I have mine mounted on the roof of the car with velcro. So far no problems and I get a nice whistle at 75 out of it.
