really??? i didnt know that. i also keep mine in the center console and fish it out when i need it once or twice a week in PA.

 

i suppose you still need the transponder where gates are still used.

 

Ive gotta ask.. do you really cruise around with those big fuzzy dice dangling from your rearview mirror all the time?

That would drive me absolutely insane, haha.

 

LOL.... Actually its a 2018 C4S Cab that was held hostage in CT forever so when it was released I got the fuzzy dice as a joke. No I don't drive around with them.... I only use them in the privacy of my garage

 

Against terms of service, will result in confiscation

 

Wow, having the pass small and black really makes for a quiet, unobtrusive environment for the driver.

 

I have used this solution on a few cars, works really well. Tried painting things but the smell would always bother me.

Small black enclosure for the EZpass

You remove the suction cups and add this in the back, it's a 3M black velcro, even in 100+ heat the transponder case does not fall down:


If you look closely, its mounted on top next to the mirror:

 

By who? And how?

I've been doing this for over 20 years. With at least 6 transponders. Never had an issue. The battery life is 10 years. They can fine you when you turn in for a new unit ($10-$40) but there are ways to talk out of that. In fact, I did just that 2 weeks ago. Worth it, regardless.

 

I just heard on the radio yesterday, that IPASS will begin (maybe 2018....not sure?) charging users the "cash" price (usually double the IPass price) for uses who do not have their transponders probably displayed. FYI. So, you can't just rely on plate recognition any longer. Not sure how that will work with the reciprocal with EZ-Pass.

 

Hmmm. I wonder why - it's not like someone is manually looking at the license plate photos and seeing if they correspond to a registered transponder. It's all computerized and matches to plates and registered pass users probably takes milliseconds. I guess just another way to grab the money out of your wallet.

 

I don't know. I imagine their plate reading technology may not be as accurate and reliable as needed.
