I was wondering if the windshield was not blocking the radio wave and that the location to use was just below the front Tesla cameras?Well done...but here in CA the local authorities claim that they
(or the cameras that snap a photo of the front of your car with your passengers)
must actually see a transponder, even if it is legal and set to the proper setting

Because yesterday while I used it for the first time on the San Francisco Bay Bridge I didn't hear the little beep when passing the gate?
I put the transponder in middle of the flat and horizontal area at the bottom of the windshield.
I wonder if there is a way to test other than passing the tool plaza?I think the sweet spot on the Model 3 is just to the right of the mirror mount. Not sure if anywhere else on the windshield is usable. But I did not try below the mirror/camera mount as this is not in the Tesla manual. And, as I noted, I tried to orient it vertical but ended up mounting it horizontally tight against the headliner and tight against the mirror/camera housing.

It's a new car, so I don't have yet my license plates.I don’t care about toll highways reading my transponder because we also get recognized using “Toll By Plate”.
Some people put it under the ceiling glass.My frustration with these windshields is that it’s a PITA to enter a gated community because it can’t read my transponder.
In my 2015 Model S, I have it in the front bubble which works flawlessly.
Not sure how to resolve this in the Model 3.
Not a fan of sticking things on my windshield. Anyone else have a solution?

Just curious. Why are those things so big? Our EZ Pass tags are small transparent stickers with the chip/circuitry embedded. Do these do something more complicated?It's a new car, so I don't have yet my license plates.

I don’t know about the one above, but, in the DC/VA area, the transponder has a switch that you flip to indicate whether you have 1 person or multiple persons in the car. The setting determines whether you can use HOV lanes and certain other roads/lanes without paying a toll (or a fine).Just curious. Why are those things so big?

I want to share a picture of how we mounted a toll road transponder in our Model 3. This is particularly useful if you have any film on your front windshield or you simply don't like look of a (typically) white transponder stuck to your front windshield.
My wife took some dark paper then cut & bent it to make a "hat" or "coat" for the toll road transponder, leaving an opening in the back for the some "velcro like" attachment on the back of the transponder. We then stuck the transponder to the back of the center screen instead of the windshield. No one in the car can see it at all, and it blends in so well that it's barely visible from the outside.

Since when? I have EZPass and the tags are the same sizes as those.
