i'm doing that with mt SG. its not working out so well

cali yaris · 06-07-2009, 12:22 PM

the SG is long, maybe it's because it doesn't conform to the curve of the glovebox. I used the SG for a while on the left side (where the AEM a/f gauge is), it worked fine.

Are you using heavy-duty double-sided tape? That should hold the sucker on there just fine.

Yes but the issue for me isn't the strength of the tape but the heat it's bombarded with day in and day out down here in Tampa. It heats up the adhesive and it can on last so long in 100+ degree heat. I need to rig up some kind of mounting bracket or something.

So Cal here, plenty of 100+ degree days... like yesterday.

Get one of those windshield reflective thingies?

I epoxied the window suction cup from my tom tom to the dashboard right behind the steering wheel. Its going on a year of lots of heat and sun.

And yes, a sun screen is imperative. If something is getting hot enough to melt glue/3m tape/epoxy, its hot enough to destroy the plasticizers in your dash, as well as fade the color.

Use it everyday. Not enough down here. Remember, we got humidity too.

I know right? lol
But if you dont mind. Id like to steal your idea on the guage location you got there. Its very clean and convienient setup. I was going to get the A pillar pods, but this seems more practical.

Don't mind one bit!
