Default Cool EZPass Cover Mod

One thing I've always hated is having to mount an EZPass In my cars. We have several toll roads here that take tolls at random intervals, so holding it up doesn't work, and I think those suction cup mount things look worse, so I've always begrudgingly looked for the most invisible place to mount them and just done it.

I was looking around and I found a cool rubber cover for the EZ Pass that dramatically improves its looks in the car.

Here is a picture from my Dashcam install that shows the exposed EZ Pass:




Here is the EZPass front and back inside the cover. Theres a rigid plastic part that snaps on the back letting the velco come through, and then the soft silicone cover slips over the EZpass and around the edge of the rigid backing. It also comes with black velcro to replace the clear, but I didnt bother with that since its up in the dot matrix area and invisible from the outside:





Here are the pictures of the EZPass with the cover installed:





Extremely happy with it. The EZPass now just looks like another OEM sensor attached to the windshield.

If anybody has interest I got it off eBay:

It did take it a while to get to me since it came from Canada, about 2 weeks. I mean, for $7 (well, $15 with shipping) why not?

Really looks great! I like where yours is mounted, mine is toward the passenger side so there is clear glass btw the tag and the toll sensor but from what I see in your pic it works just fine behind those black dots. Do you have any worries if you needed to remove the velcro piece adhered to the glass itself there could be damage to the dots?

TxTags are just a sticker with an RFID chip in the center, I tend to just place them on the windshield behind the rearview mirror where I can't see it from the driver's seat.

I never knew these existed until @SW LS460 came along!

I just bought and installed this one, but I don't have any pics yet, but it looks awesome:

I also have that one! I like this one better because it looks more OEM and it doesn't add to the size of the EZPass like the leather one does. With the leather one it touches my rearview mirror.
