Morning all, I just got my easy pass transponder in the mail (right in time for the holiday)

I put it on last night at the top of the windshield behind the mirror. One edge is flush with the mirror and the top edge is flush with windshield meeting the interior.

I did it last night and noticed this morning that that area is behind the factory tint on my '02 gle.

The instruction warm of placing it behind tint.

Does anyone have a EZ-Pass transponder located where mine is?

Do i have to worry about the tint?

Anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks

 

When my EZ-Pass is in the middle console it is still picked up by the booths clearly so I would think tint would not affect it whatsoever.

 

mines is on the same spot and its been there from about a year and a half everything gets picked up so you have nothing to worry about.

 

YEP nothing to worry about...i have mine behind the tint also. It's fine...

 

so long as the tint doesn't have any special reflective properties to it, it should be alright.. I know my uncle's old S-class had a specal coating on all the windows and there were designated squares on the windshield behind which you had to place devices such as those.

 

Thanks everyone, as always, I appreciate the fast replies.

Ill take it slow through the first booth today, but sounds as if i should be good to go.

Have a GREAT Holiday for all of you who celebrate it!

 

I've had my EZ-Pass behind the windshield tint for 4 years now, no problems at all.

 

no problem rite here ... i had it since i bought the car... but urs is an 02 i don't know if you have that special windshield or not

and it is in the same exact location as urs... hope that helps
