If I attach this unit to my windshield, can it be easily removed? That is, the suction cup has a sticky base; is it a permanent kind of sticky?

it's not easy but it comes off its actually more difficult to come off the dashboard when you get it to stick to that

This also concerned me but no, the sticky base can be removed from the windshield. In fact I install the phone holder occasionally only when I need it to work as a GPS route guide. When not needed i remove it and keep it in my glove compartment. To preserve the stickiness of the base I replace the original base cover.I am not sure if the base may lose its ability to remain stuck to the windshield if the stickiness is lost.

the suction cup is pretty sticky, I attached above radio so its eye level on the dash which is a plastic, it doesn't move at all.

No I put mine on the windshield and on my dash into different places it comes off really easy

No not permanent but has micro suction cups on it so has long as surface is clean and not to curved to much it will stick good. If base gets dirty wash in warm water with mild soap.

The sticky mount attaches to the foot pad making it impossible to use it on the windshield. BUT if you attach the sticky mount to a flat disk and attach that to the dashboard you can mount the car phone holder to either the dashboard or the windshield.

I've never had a problem with it. Don't Stick it on when your windshield is or has been in direct sunlight. Maybe try wetting the suction cup.. Hope that is helpful.

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.

The mount will come off of the windshield if you slip a sharp point knife VERY CAREFULLY into the adhesive and SLOWLY work the point in. Once the mount starts to come loose, peeling it off is easier. Clean up the sticky mess with 90% alcohol. To re-mount, I use the 3M outdoor double side tape. It's kinda dark gray with the red peel off backing.

just take off the transparent plastic that comes added to the suction cup and press the sucction cup against the windshield and it holds.

The adhesive and suction are very strong an sturdy. I have mine stuck to my dashboard and I do not remove it. However I'm sure, as with most adhesive backings, that if u keep removing it, it will probably wear down. I don't know about that company's policy on replacements.

It works great on my windshield. There is an adhesive pad included with the kit and it may be better to use that than suction if you are mountng on the console. Have to say, I like having my phone up on my windshield as its very easy to glance at it while driving. When I use my phone in my husbands car, I have to look down on the console and I prefer having the phone mounted on the windshield.

you will be using a combination of that the sticky glue and suction cup. I have reused couple of times in different spots on my car without any problem. however after some times and if your car is under direct sunlight you may need to reinstall it buy releasing the suction cup lever and push it back every once and a while.

I gave it to my cousin as a Christmas gift, so really have no idea. I would think just pull it off the window, clean it and suction cup it back up.

Thanks for your question, Jessica; there is a suction base that will allow the user to uninstall the mount. In fact,I've moved it from it's initial position on the windshield to the top of the dash (the extreme rake of the windshield put my Note2 used as gps too far to access easily). Yet, I don't believe that the adhesive on the unit is geared towards the user doing this sort of thing continuously. The Intek is more of a "Set & Forget" type of thing, in my view. With that said, I continue to be very pleased with it's service and value. Hope this helps in your decision.

Hey Bob, No!! After about 2 summers the 2 suction cups stiffened and never adhered to the windshield again. Buy a good after market...worth the money...cuz, it's a great detector. Good luck. Keep the detector,it'll save ya. Peace. ✌

Yes it comes with the standard suction cup mount that will stick to a windshield.

It sticks very well. I've stuck it, removed it, and stuck it again. It has a tacky surface on the suction cup that allows it to stick to a textured dash like mine. I'm very pleased with it. hope this helps.

Yes it is portable. It sticks to the windshield with a releasable suction cup.

No, this not a permanent mount. You can use either suction grip or Velcro. I have taken mine off several times. It is a good mounting system.....no complaints at all.

It's very easy, theres a button to detach it from the suction cups so you can take it off without removing the suction cups from your windshield or wherever you stick it
