Why do you suggest the mount can be mounted to the dash via suction. It does not. There is no "plate" with the mount. P.Carey

I did not suggest the mount can go to the dash I said the windshield, I have not tried the dash because my Radar detector needs to be up high so I can get 360 degree coverage. But it may work because it haled on by socks ion

It is not designed for flush mount, depending on what type of vehicle you are trying to install it is possible however it will take some skill to mold it in. It is designed to be mounted like a liscense plate mount camera

The mount is not supposed to "stick" to the surface. It has a tacky finish to aid in skidding or slipping around. My experience is that if the surface loses tackiness is because the surface is dirty, as in dusty. A good washing off of the pad and a good wet wipe of the dash and all is good.

It is used for mounting the suction to your dash if your dash doesn't allow normal suction. I use it and it works perfectly. I'm not concerned with the possibility of damaging my dash because of the material it is made of... you will have to make that call on your own.

The mount needs a flat spot on the dash that it can set on. From internet pictures it doesn't look like it would work on the Prius. Best answer might be a window suction mount.

The dash mount uses an adhesive plate. the TomTom mount itself will then be used to stick onto the plate. Once you decide where to use the plate, it is pretty much permanent. You could buy another mount kit but I think it costs about $29 for the full kit. Or alternatively you could place the GPS on your lap (preferable passenger side) so the driver can focus on driving. Not ideal, but you will still get a signal and be able to use it without a mount.

It has to be mounted on the window - I tried the dash - but the suction didn't take due to the rough pattern of the dash.

Yes, it should fit into the mount that is on the extreme left of the picture. It will not fit in the one attached to the suction cup mount. These holders snap easily on and off the same suction cup mount. My advise is to use the adhesive disc even if you are considering direct mounting to windshield. The suction cup unit will as they all will, eventually fall off when directly applied to the windshield. Why, I don't know, but it will not come off the disc, and the disc will not come off the windshield or dashboard. Clean all surfaces with alcohol. Position the disc carefully because once set on the windshield you won't be able to remove it and reuse it.....Hint, put the suction cup on the disc, then "shop it around" for best location...then mark the window with a marker, then remove suction unit from disc, then remove covering from adhesive side of disc, and press the disc onto the windshield or dash location you marked.

The gel pad would stick to the dashboard (be sure to clean & dry the area before sticking the gel pad). You then attach & lock the mount itself on the pad plate. If you want to use the mount on your windshield simply detach the mount from the gel plate and attach the mount to the windshield (leave the gel pad on your dash).

Well I have a vehicle mount for my samsung tab 2 , their is no place to mount it in your vehicle, it's too heavy to mounted on the dash board, the adhesive doesn't hold the stand, so I paid for something that I can't really use.

No. The mount merely rests on the dash. It is not attached with anything (no adhesives) and relies on friction to keep from sliding around. I can't imagine a scenario where it would do damage, unless the dash got extremely hot and caused something to melt.

No...no hardware is supplied. No backing plate either. To attach to the dash, I would use sheet metal or self tapping screws

The base is pretty heavy so I think I can only mount to the dash. Yes it comes with a charger & cable which happens to be detachable if you want to.

It is designed to be mounted above the License plate, but it's yours you can mount it anywhere you want. As far as the install, on my car stereo there are jacks for it, and you need to purchase a fuse cable from Autozone or whoever so you will not blow it up. Its not hard.

It is probably limited to the capacity of the roof rack not the mounts. I agree with other answers

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.

If it can be mounted on a dash ,yes it can....i had to turn my device upside down so the suction cup could be used as a dash mount.....
