Does the EZ pass work in the TSX Trunk?
Has anyone tried mounting the EZ pass on the underside of there trunk lid? I refuse to mount it to the windshield. I'm a daily driver on tool roads and often forget to grab the ezpass out of the cubby to hold up to the windshield.

won't work in the trunk. But if you leave it in the glove box sometimes it works - at least mine does.

I sit really that hard to keep it in the console and remember to chuck on the dash?

It wont even work on my windshield behind the sun buster (window tint)... I didn't know it wasn't working until I got a notice in the mail with a pic of me running the toll.

I've since moved it down and it works fine.

Try putting it under the center console cover. No guarantee, but it surely won't work under the trunk lid or under any other metallic surface.

Pa does not have a front license plate so there probably is no place to mount the license plate mount.

You could zip tie the plate mount either inside the grille or in front of the radiator. It would be completely invisible

I don't believe PA has the plate mount option for the EZ pass

When we lived in Pa we could get one. I ordered one by mistake and had to return it.

I have my ez-pass thru the Delaware River Joint Toll Bridge Commission. Their phone # is 1-800-872-5061. Maybe someone there can help you.
