Dash Cam Mounting and Windshield Frit

[carpenj]

Those of you that have mounted a dash cam, sticking it to the windshield near/behind the rear view mirror - did you have any of the sticky mounting surface on the windshield frit (the black stuff with the Ford logo on the glass where the mirror is mounted)? Would mounting it over that black stuff damage it if/when I remove it?

Sorry never tried it in that location. Radar detector is already there snuggly under the rear view mirror. The dash cam is mounted in corner of the windshield.

I have tint over that area in my car but I wouldn't expect any damage from mounting one there. Just use a little heat from a hair dryer when you remove it and it should come off easily. If it comes off tint without damage, that should be fine.

Is your radar detector glued onto that black material behind the mirror, by chance? I'm leaning toward being safe, rather than sorry, and mounting it on bare glass just under that stuff.

Sorry it is on a mirror mount.

I gave up on trying to mount anything to that area. I use 2 blendmounts instead. One each for the V1 radar detector and blackvue camera.
