I usually just throw it in the middle of my windshield, but i've seen them placed in various places, if radar is my main concern (not laser) would putting it in the corner of the windshield by steering wheel cut performance?

At the highest point of your windshield below the tint. Basically right below your rear view mirror. The higher it is, the sooner the signal you will get.

does it really matter? I mean radar bounces all around, so would it matter if its mouted right under the tint or mouted on the dash?

Why would a radar detector have to be below the tint? I could kinda see it for laser, but laser doesn't spread very far from its intended target. Radar shouldn't be affected by a darker tint.
