Thanks. The Texas EZ-Pass is about 4" square. So it has to be in that black area to the right of the rearview mirror. Guess I'll have to order a new tag.

Anyone tried sticking it into the frunk?
Yes, I did this in my Corvette. I posted in another thread, maybe soflauthor's?. It should work assuming we can get access to the plastic nose cone.I found a Jeep forum where someone had taken the external unit and mounted it with plastic zip ties to some interior framing under a plastic panel at the front bumper. This made it invisible which is nice because people won't be tempted to steal it if they can't see it.
This got me thinking about the black plastic front bumper piece on the Model S. Does anybody know what is behind it? Is there a place where one could zip tie an external transponder in that location? Seems like it would be the perfect solution to this issue if it worked.
I was told there is a small access panel on the black nose cone. It is to the right of the chrome Tesla T badge. The panel is nicely camouflaged and not easily visible, but it is there. You can pry it out with a flat head screw driver. Maybe this is a good place to mount RFID devices?Yes, I did this in my Corvette. I posted in another thread, maybe soflauthor's?.

I have a radar detector I mount in my old car just above the dash to the left of the driver. Will the windshield coating prevent it from detecting radar (K, KA and LASER), or receiving GPS (it warns when approaching the coordinates of a red light camera in its database) in the Model S? If anyone has used a radar detector with the Model S I'm very interested to hear if the windshield coating caused any problem. On a related note to the radar detector, I have it hardwired into an internal fuse box in my old car (at the end of the dash, with access facing the driver's side door). Is there an interior fuse box in the Model S? If they published a user manual I'd be able to find out...
There is some discussion about radar detectors here: Valentine One radar detector installation
I witnessed two different EZPasses in two Model Ss not working in the black area to the right of the mirror. They do work perfectly right below the mirror mount though.Could someone post a picture of where exactly they placed their EZpass (or TxTag) on the windshield and if they have confirmed it works? I understand to the right of the rearview mirror in the black coated area is the place (to the right if you are sitting in the driver's seat). Thanks.
