Will this mount stick to a dash?

Unless you have a painted steel dash, like they used to have in the 60's & earlier, you will need to purchase an adhesive mounting disk to stick to a porous surface like they use on modern vehicles.

No! It's made to be on the glass surface but you have other alternatives like the diamond shape ball installed on to the dashboard

I don't think it would stick to a patterned dash. It does mount on the window really well, though. I use it for flying and have been through quite some turbulence without my ipad falling off.

Depends on the texture of the dash. If grain permits good hold without sticky disk, definitely yes. Since I have not used the sticky disk, I cannot say how easy it is to move. My car is an Accent with a moderate textured dash. It holds fast using suction cup only.

You can mount it in the dash by using the template and cutting a hole in the dash. The unit will be held in by four screws. Or, you can purchase the additional gimble mount and attach it wherever.

I live in Hawaii, it does stick to any surface, but more so the window. I changed the location of my mount and when it is on my dash at a angle it doesn't stay stuck for a long period. This could be because of the heat we have year round here in Hawaii.

Yes. If your Dashboard is flat enough to hold the suction. You might get a lot of shaky video by mounting it on the dash though.

Yes It should work just fine for u. My dashboard is textured so it wont stick there. But it stays good on the window.

I'd say about 3 1/2 inches. Not sure what other users have had issues with it sticking, but there is a trick to turning the base to engage the suction cup. There's actually a notch that it twists to, and it took me a minute of fiddling with it to figure it out. After that, it stuck like a tank. It will matter what kind of material you are sticking it to. No suction cup is going to stick to a leather dash. For that purpose, there is an included disk with adhesive that you can apply to a non-smooth surface and then suction the hold to that disk.

It uses a suction cup. If your dash is smooth enough it would probably work know. I don't remember if it came with one of those sticky base plates or not.

I drive a 94 Nissan Pickup with a curved dash and have no problems with my mount. It comes with a little stick on piece that you can attach the mount by the little tab at the back. I have not done this and have had no problems. The mount is heavy enough to stay put. My dash is "textured" if that would mean anything.

Will not stick to dash. Need to mount to windshield.I've used mine with a Sony HandyCam on an old railroadgrade, with holes big enough to eat a truck!! Stayedmounted the entire trip and more.Even the cold of winter did not bother it. Had it mounted, on a couple of trips to the Denver area.Just in case something did happen.Came undone a couple of times, but only due to operator error!I didn't get the suction cup firmly attached! Great piece to have.

If the surface is smooth it will stick with the suction cup mount. If the surface is rough use the sticky pad then the suction cup mount will work with that.

It must be attached to a smooth surface, like the windshield. If you have a smooth dash it should stick. But if it's a textured dash it won't work. I attached mine to the windshield and it works perfectly! Good luck.

I couldn't get if to stick to my Chevy dashboard either. I mounted it on my side window (door window) where it hasn't moved since i mounted it.

It may stick however I put two screws to hd mine . Drilled two small holes in plastic. Comes with screws. Cannot see the magnet unless you are looking for it. Secure too!

I am also looking for a mounting device, but I don't want any yhting that is permanent or that will leave sticky stuff on my dash. Have you come up with any ideas

It would stick to a slick plastic, metal or glass surface. Not to any type of cloth material or grainy material like on a glove box or dashboard.

It comes with a sticky tape circular mount that might stick to the dash and the holder will suction to that. If you've got a good flat area on the dash it may work good.
