What glue to use on the dashboard
I don't want to drill holes and have tried different glues but nothing sticks to the dashboard. Any suggestions ?

Double sided tape might also work, depending on your application.

Double sided tape will work, just clean the dashboard first and let it dry, it worked for me.

Re: What glue to use on the dashboard
You can use "sikaflex 221" or "carbond" but make sure the surface is cleaned properly with turpentine or spirits "no thinners"

Re: What glue to use on the dashboard
I got pepperspray I want to keep closeby. I use presstick now above the handbrake to be reachable from both seats, but don't last in the heat and fall down.
The ultrasonic sensor is glued with gray RTV - underneath the lighter - I don't want to touch it.
I normally clean the surface with benzine - it doesn't leave a deposit.
Maybe I must try some of those thin black double sided tape - the white ones shows to easy.

Re: What glue to use on the dashboard
Sorry thank you for the feedback. On the otherhand I don't want to use proper glue - if I want to swap places I don't want to damage the dash.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.

Re: What glue to use on the dashboard
Try one of those smelly thing bracket that fits in the vents. Remove the bottle and fit the pepperspray to the head.
