can this be used on dashboard as well as the windshield ?

I don't think so. It would have to be an extremely smooth and straight dashboard; not recommended. It does work very well on glass, however. Excellent product.

Yes, I actually have it mounted to my dash, but you have to buy a gel dash pad, or sticky pad (this one has adhesive) so the base will have something to grip.

You can attach this unit to the dashboard as long as you can find the flat surface for the suction cup. This product desires a 5star rating because the build quality is good

Pretty sure you can. We used this on the plexiglass on our race car and it's held up so far. 2yrs and counting.

Yes I have mine mounted on dashboard. It comes with a round disk that you stick to the dashboard onto which the suction part clamps.

My dashboard is the same; textured. I didn't have a problem with any kind of damage, but there is an issue with placement. The way my windshield is designed, during a normal day here in San Diego, California, the sun really heats up and is not a good mix with my iphone. It doesn't matter where I place the unit, so that it's accessible, heating up is a problem. You might want to think about that before you buy.

I have only tried to mount it on the dashboard of my car. Everytime I use it and try to mount it on my dashboard, it won't stay there. In hindsight, I should have returned this but I threw away the box.

I would not recommend this product. I have it and it does not stay attached to the base. If you have a slanted dashboard, it will likely keep falling down onto the floor. It does stick to my windshield.

I don't know I didn't use it on my windshield. I use it on my dashboard. Because that was one of my concerns.

You can also mount it to the corner post or on your dashboard. I have had them on both. Corner post is the best as it's not as obstructive. I would not mount to your windshield.

It works better on the windshield. Clean surface with vinegar and water. Works wonderfully.

like Robert said, only if the dashboard was very smooth. I think there is a place on my Prius it would work, but not on any of my other cars.

don't even think about installing this on any dashboards. Mine falls off after a day or two and then your phone crashes on to the floor. The dashboard materials are not good for adhesives and nothing sticks to it. don't even try. if you stick it on to the windshield glass, the suction cup is used and it is OK

No, it would not stick as well if at all. It has a sticky gel ring around the suction cup base. If the ring looses it's tackiness then you can wash it using water and a mild detergent to make it sick like new again. In my case, since my dashboard has a pebbled texture, the sticky gel ring does all of the work. While in theory one could keep it in the glove box, the practicality of pulling it out, washing it, and waiting for it to air dry before being able to use it nullifies the ability.

I think you could glue the suction cup on your dash but it will be ugly when you remove it. I don't think the suction cup will stick to the dash.

The unit will work on most dashboards however, works best on fairly flat surfaces. The three weighted bags are handy on some configurations like my Honda Accord where I do not set it on the dash, but on the ledge in front of the information screen or, in front of the gear shift panel down below the instrument panel. I would advise getting some of the rubberized material used for tool box and kitchen cabinet drawers (can be found at most hardware or in kitchen departments of grocery stores. It can provide a very non-slip gripping surface for the bottom of this device.

You can use the disc with red "chassis paste" included to stick to a textured dashboard and then attach the suction cup to the disc. The suction cup itself needs a flat surface.

The suction pad is made of silicone. It should work well with the dashboard if you apply it properly. Clean the dashboard and then put the mount on the surface with power, pull down the lock button to exhaust extra air and stabilize the mount.
