G4 Interior Transponder 

Mounting Instructions

G4 interior transponders mount to the inside of the vehicle windshield. The preferred mounting location 

is between the roofline and the rear view mirror post. If adequate space is not available in the preferred 

mounting location, the transponder can be mounted beside the rear view mirror post.  The transponder 

is secured using 3M™ Dual Lock™ fasteners.

Requirements

  For reliable operation of the transponder, the vehicle should not be 

equipped with more than one transponder of similar design while 

passing through a toll facility.  Other transponders present in or on 

the vehicle must be switched off or enclosed in an RF shield.

  The mounting location must provide direct line-of-sight 

communication between the transponder and the toll facility 

overhead antenna.

  Do not mount the interior transponder in vehicles:

 with non-metallic roofs. 

 with windshields covered in RF-blocking material (ex. metal oxide). 

 with a metallic center windshield dividing post. 

 without center-mounted rear view mirrors.

  Handheld mobile communication devices must not be located within 

12” (30 cm) of the transponder.

  Metal objects (except for the rear view mirror and the roof) must not 

be located within 6” (15cm) of the transponder.

  G4 Interior transponders cannot be used where local regulations 

prohibit mounting transponders on the windshield.

  Apply the 3M Dual Lock fasteners in accordance with 3M document 

70-0709-4029-4.

Transponder Mounting Instructions

3M Dual Lock adhesive pads on the back of the transponder are used 

to mount the transponder.  Choose the correct mounting location 

of the transponder (preferred or alternative) before affixing it to the 

windshield.

Preferred Mounting Location

The transponder should be mounted between the roofline and the rear 

view mirror mounting post, such that the top of the transponder is 

½

” 

(1

¼

 cm), but no more than 2” (5 cm) from the roofline, and the bottom 

of the transponder is a minimum of 

½

” (1

¼

 cm) from the rear view mirror 

post.
