Angry Road Angel Help!

The radar detector bit of my Road Angel stubbornly refuses to stay stuck to my windscreen for anymore than about 20 seconds.

Any tips on how to keep it stuck in place would be greatly appreciated. I've already dismissed the glue option before anyone suggests it!!

Cheers,

Andy

Make sure the window screen is clean - ie squeaky clean and that the plastic suction cup is clean as well. Check for any splits / holes in the suction cup as well, if its split it wont form a good seal.

It's a laser detector and therefore will give you a nice warning just a you are being caught. Might as well not bother and wait for the postal surprise!

I shouldn't bother, the poxy thing only works if it's cloudy anyway!
There is some blurb in the instructions about not leaving it in the full sun but that's a fat lot of use when you're driving innit!
It spent more time refusing to play than working & in the end I gave up on it!
'Course other half promptly got done for speeding in the RX8 but didn't like using it anyway as the thing going off driving thru places with speed cameras every 10 yds was infuriating!
£65 fine & 3 points was apparently preferable 2 being driven mad by constant beeping!
