2. Prepare

Remove any protective backing from the transponder. Avoid touching any adhesive that may be on the back (depending on which transponder you received).

3. Place

Place the transponder inside your windshield near the rearview mirror, about 4 inches below the roofline. Ensure it is four inches from any electronics and does not obstruct your line of sight.  Press down firmly to ensure the transponder is securely adhered to the windshield. If you have an enhanced window, visit our enhanced windshield webpage for more information.
