+1--me too. Only nice thing I can say about our inspection and registration stickers. I wish Texas would go back to stickers on the license plates and also have inspections coincide with registration renewals so we can do away with two stickers on the windshield.

Anyway, do you guys really have lives that are so sorted out that you can devote time to worrying about the EZPass in the front windshield?

does anyone know what the "exterior" EZ pass is?? they mention it on the website, but they say it is only for a few cars that have special windshields that block the signal. I would think that someone would steal it?

Its probably a special license plate bracket that gets bolted on.

I'm sure someone sufficiently motivated could steal it, would require them to unscrew your front plate, but almost nobody knows what it is (my car is black so it kinda blends in, like the little front bumperettes on the early 996TTs), it's keyed to your license plate, and you'd know pretty quickly if it were to be stolen so I doubt it's a hot item for professional thieves.
I don't have a picture handy, but if you're interested I can try and fin tonight or tomorrow
Best,

You be the judge of the look of the license plate mounted EZ Pass... Not my car!

Same here. I blow through all the time. I have 5 cars and 3 easypass transponders. Sometimes I forget the transponder. All the plates are listed on the account so they never fine me. But Pa and NY have gates so that can be problematic.
