Toll Tags in France

[Ohbuggeritsme]

Hi,
hoping someone can help with this!
I have just received my Toll Tag for a holiday in France. The instructions to say to place it in the mottle area behind the wing mirror, but I am unable to do this as it is filled with black plastic casing.

Has any idea had the same issue and placed it beside the mirror/mottled area and its worked ok?
thank you x

It should be on the bit behind the rear view not wing mirror

If it helps I've used a toll tag for many years on various cars and found that as long it's attached to the windscreen somewhere it has always worked OK. (Even on a Ford windscreen with a built in heating element).

The adhesive has worn off ours and it sits in the coffee cup bit between the front seats. It still works. Occasionally we wave it about.

@abovedecknotbelow typo - it is indeed meant to be behind the rear view mirror

@Twyler and @MissAmbrosia a great help thank you!
i shall stick it next to the mottled area and hope for the best

We have our current one here with no issues (held on with a hairband but that's another story). As long as it's on the windscreen it seems fine. Before the hairband I just held it touching the windscreen and it worked.

Do not have your partner wave it around near the windscreen whilst shouting 'i am the blipper now'. Not from experience you understand, but I can assure you this does not work and causes a queue.

@xyzandabc to be fair that is something i would do....or i was thinking of using magic and lifting the barrier using my mind and hand held out a la star wars/stranger things style!

thanks for the picture, that is roughly where mine would be so good to know that it works
