Can I also use the adhesive discs on glass? The suction cup on my sat nav mount has given up the ghost, but the sat nav (Tomtom GO 1000 LIVE) still runs perfectly. I don't really want to have to change the sat nav because of a "lazy" suction cup.... Thanks for the answer.

I used the TomTom adhesive disc to have a smooth surface on the dashboard of a VW Golf (rough plastic surface). For a better long-term hold, I fixed the TomTom adhesive disc to the dashboard surface with superglue and did not just use the self-adhesive pad of the adhesive disc, which can peel off (and had also peeled off spontaneously). However, you also need a suction cup in this case. If the suction cup no longer sucks in (rubber no longer tight) but is otherwise intact, you can also fix the suction cup to the adhesive disc with superglue. This works well. If the suction cup is otherwise mechanically defective (e.g. the holder is broken), it will not work.

It holds with the help of atmospheric pressure. Glette surface should rather help with that. Only when I park the car in the summer heat does it fall off.

Hello everyone, do I understand this correctly: A pad is glued to the dashboard and then I can suck the sat nav onto it (analogue to the windscreen). I.e. the pad will remain permanently on the dashboard? Or can I remove it and stick it back on the next time I use it (how often can it be used again?)? I only use the sat nav every few months. Thanks for your help!

Hello, in my opinion the pad is not made to be removed again. Unless you buy new glue. I would advise against this piece, depending on the car, as glue can leave nasty residue (or the solvent can attack the surface underneath). In my case, the plate is fixed to the dashboard and will not be removed. In my case, the suction cup from the sat nav didn't stick to the dashboard because of the fake leather look.
