Interior / Exterior Visual TechThis section contains discussion related to visual modifications of the Toyota FJ Cruiser. Some items might include dash kits, roof rack modifications and other visual modifications.
It stayed for 4 days before falling off, I picked up an 8x10 piece of clear plexi for a buck fifty at Lowes, cut a 3.5" square piece and with clear silicone stuck it in that spot overnight, works great and TomTom has stayed put ever since.
I like having mine attached to the windshield,or high enough I don't have to lower my head. When I am looking at the GPS, I can keep the road in my peripheral view.
The windshield mount works well too, for Me though a bit of a reach and I like having it out of the direct sunlight, also a minor annoyance to remove every time the windshield sun shade has to go in. What ever works for you is the right thing to do.
Here is my TOMTOM one. I love the location; easy access while driving and it's right in front of my face. I plan on running the power wire in to the dash-top compartment.

Reason: Additional information
The greatest thing about this unit is it talks to you, so having it on the dash really isn't necessary in my opinion, and really don't like it up there for all the world to see, and the heat up there during summer months is gonna cook the thing.
In the 4th coldest city in the United States heat really isn't an issue.
I remove it when I leave the vehicle (or hide it).
Yes it talks but one has to tell it what to say.
