EZ pass and the SVX
 
ok so I want to put my ezpass in the SVX for a few months. I have heard that the windshield will cause it issues. True? If so what have you done with your EZ pass to make it work. I think i read about someone holding it out the sunroof...well I have an L so that isn't an option. I do not want to get a new unit since I will be putting this back in the baja in a few months (no bumper mounts)

Back window?
Rear deck?
slow down and pay the toll?
stay home?

Edit: i just searched and found some decent answers.. Sorry.

I just got mine too and was wondering the same thing. I think though, since I have an LSi, that I'll use the sunroof.

Psssssh this is an EASY one. You install a class III hitch, buy a little trailer, put EZ pass on trailer, ride through toll lanes like you own the place. Its so easy a caveman could do it.....

Only the LSi and LS-L models had the titanium dioxide windshield. I have one on the glass of my L and it works perfect, but I tried just for grins a few times and wouldn't work on my 92 LS-L.

anyone care to verify this??? if this is correct you just put the biggest grin on my face. I wondered about the Ti windshield since my radar detector seems to work pretty good on the dash. :D

I just drive through, say "screw it" and if i get a letter in the mail i go online and dispute the charge saying i have active easypass and my vehicle is registered. Not my fault htey didn't pick it up.

EZ pass worked fine in my 95 L. On an LS-L/LSi, you can put it here:

Pretty sure all models have the coated windshields...

You can opt for a unit that mounts over your front plate. I did. It's not pretty, but neither is a front plate, and I'm stuck with that thing, too. :rolleyes:

I can verify that the EZ-Pass does NOT work on my '97/ My GPS, however, does work .....

This worked fine for me as well, never had a problem with it on the rear deck.

I'll say this again. In my 1995 SVX L, it worked fine through the windshield.

Say it again! Say it again!

Two things:

* Stopping to pay for the toll is so uncool.

* The NYS Thruway was supposed to have been paid for and toll-free before I was born. Dang!
