Good morning everyone. I am planning to purchase this product but am a bit confused. Why does it need a special backing?

The extended battery is thicker so the normal cover will no fit. The best part is the rubber protector which helps with drops , gripping and stops cracks .

It does not require any kind of tape. The backing is a material that will prevent the pad from sliding around and it does stay in place. I use mine in my MKZ and it works great. I can remove the pad when I do not need my gps so no one knows I have one in the car. Hope this helps. Melvin

This cardstock paper product (that I purchased) has no sticky stuff on the back of it - you need special paper for labels... this is bright white hard stock paper I bought - for printing signs or menus, which is what I used it for... look for special Avery paper for label printing...

The backing is harboard material, which is a little better than cardboard. It's really just for decoration and to help with some lateral stability.

I had a standard background holder. The background is heavy. I put mine on 2 inch metal conduit to keep it from sagging. I tried PVC and it wasn't heavy enough. The cardboard core is not strong enough. You will have to replace it. Best regards

The backing is harder that foam, it reminds me of a cardboard with a fabric overlay, but smooth inserts for Pins. From what I can tell it does not come out, the backing is firmly adhered to the sides and back of the unit. I do not know if you could remove and get a "clean" appearance. I.e. unsure if glued or nailed in.

Those wall protectors stick on the bottom corners of the wall hanging so it doesn't dent against the wall. The backing should come off and it's sticky.

Hi KentYes that is correct. I assume that is to protect the unit from getting scratched/damaged during shipment

I noticed when I first got it too, but then saw that the installation instructions say "Please note that there is a protective cover/film on the mirrors surface so that it does not get scratched during shipping and handling. Ensure that this protective film cover is removed prior to use and cycling." The film isn't immediately obvious, but if you scratch with a fingernail at the edge, I suspect you'll find it (if you haven't removed it already).

There will always be a bad apple whether its the product or the person reviewing it. Sometimes people just have bad luck with products. But we haven't regretted our purchase for even a second. We love it. Good luck with yours if you get it. Just be sure to do the support on the bottom the proper way and I think you'll be really pleased with it. We may have gone a little overboard on the framing of the base but that's how we roll. Lol

You will need a special wide cover, which is available here. The original cover is essentially garbage and won't last long.

It comes with 5 backings. You could use the bins for the ones without backings.

if you are using alone, card stock. If using backed with card stock, I would use the paper. I backed with Black cardstock and the paper was perfect weight.

The tape has a backing which protects the glue. You peel off the backing before you install. Works great!

There's no vinyl backing. The material is slightly smoother on the back than the front.

I think it comes with an adhesive back but if not the just use a mild adhesive. It's fairly light weight.

It is a pin on the back. It's your normal pin backing, nothing special. It does the job :)
