I'm new here. I've searched through many postings about windshield toll tag location but still have a question. In the SF Bay area we use a FasTrak CAV Flex pass, FasTrak made a point of telling me to be sure to install it in the correct location because they have lots of problems with transponders not working on Teslas.
The manual for my 2023 Model S shows the mounting location in the lower right corner of the windshield, it does not show a location near the mirror. Our Flex pass requires use of a sliding switch to set the number of occupants, which makes the lower right location unusable. Prior Model S version manuals show the mounting location to the right of the rear view mirror, which many posts discuss.
Two questions:
Is there something different about 2021+ models that make the mirror location unusable?
Also a little concerned that if I try it up there and it doesn't work, will removing the adhesive strips damage the metal coating on the windshield?
