Hello all,

Installing my Bluetooth kit today and I need to stick the below



to this



right next to the steering wheel.


What's gonna be best to use to stick it down? I don't want to leave any marks as I'll be selling it in a few years....I was thinking sikaflex? but that might leave a mark...

Thanks all :)
 
Just screw it on.

Honestly, anyone buying that car "in a few years" isn't going to be bothered about a couple of small holes in the dash.
 
I'm assuming it's the loud speaker.

Why are you putting it next to the steering wheel?

It'll look ridiculous, and they're supposed to be under the dash.

I have no idea how loud it's going to be or how clear, so I want to put it by the steering wheel so I'll definately be able to hear it without problems and I don't care if it does look ridiculous, better than being caught using my phone whilst driving

They're designed to be concealed on the underside of the dash, they're plenty loud enough, it'll be too loud up there.

Yup, got a Nokia one in my car and its plenty loud enough and its well hidden up under the dashboard.
If you MUST screw it somewhere, put it lower down or on a piece of plastic that is small and easy to replace. Huge holes in the top of the dashboard are actually likely to put of any potential buyers in future.

Or just get a decent car kit, that goes through the cars own stereo system.

looks to be a decent kit, but the leads to go through stereo are a complete rip off and the standard nokia speaker is okay

I don't find the leads that go through the stereo to be a complete rip off :confused:

Personally I dont want tat screwed to my car.
 
... and wipe of those sucker marks on the windscreen while you're at it - thieves look for them so they know you have a satnav or mobile phone kit in the car to nick!
 
Put it under *** dash in the passenger footwell, believe me you'll be able to hear it.
If you put it up by the steering wheel, it'll be too loud and you'll get awful feedback through the microphone as the speaker will be too close to it. Putting it up on top of the dash will render it useless.
