I recently acquired a electronic toll pass to cross the bridges. It's an unsightly cream-colored box with a purple and green (!) 'FasTrak' written in large letters. I'm not very fond of this object and would like to conceal it somewhere in the SC; I thought about sticking it in the moonroof cover or in the back shelf. Any other tricky areas to hide this hideous box?

I put mine under the rear view mirror

just put it behind your rearview mirror with velcro.

You must be from the bay area. The sunroof would be a good idea if you dont really use it that much.

I just have mine on the passenger side behind the mirror. Nobody really notices it.

Sorry for the poor quality pic, but this is the best image I can find on Google (still have not learned how to upload photos to new Macbook...):

Actually I use my moonroof almost daily, so I'm not sure how it would hold up. There's a thread on the Prelude forums where one disassembles the entire unit and hides it in the speedometer, found here. Might give it a try.

And yes, I am in NorCal. I commute to Davis and S.F. via Bay Bridge, and will soon start using the Benicia Bridge. I'm tired of lining up and waiting 15-60 mins. to pay $4. I swear, some people count pennies...

yeah that's what I was thinking. If you need help with your mac, let me know... don't use PM. Try aim, yahoo, or msn

Will do, I just learned what iChat is two days ago haha.

Btw, how fast can one go through the toll and still have the device detected? On the Wikipedia page for Fastrak, it says speeds up to 70 mph, but I have never seen anyone charge through the toll lane at that speed.

you can get a small dash mat and stick it on that, keep it out when you need to use it and stash it away if you are going to a show or something, just a way to have it not cemented to the windshield

Wow Davis to SF?? Taking it apart and putting it in the cluster sounds like a good idea. But how strong will the signal be once it needs to be read?

I stick mine in my center console then pull it out and hold it up to the windshield as I go through.
