This is what you should wind up with if you do it correctly. Use the tape as your guideline for placing the dash cam. When you finish it should look something like what you see below. The tape’s lower edge should be almost perfectly horizontal. Once you have the tape aligned on the windshield, adhere it to that, then, rolling up from the bottom, pull the level away. One thin edge of the painter’s tape is aligned carefully along one edge of the level. The images below might give you a clearer idea. Roll the level away and up to detach the tape from it and press it down. I stick the edge of the painter’s tape to the level, carefully aligned, orient the level (bubble in the middle of the two marks), and press the bare tape to the windshield. ![]() If modern options like the phone or onboard help aren’t available, you can go old-school with a carpentry level and minimally sticky painter’s tape. I’ve acquired a feel for this that a first-timer might not have, so follow the method below to minimize mistakes. When you have it aligned correctly, press more firmly. If you press very lightly when you first attach the mount to the windshield, you might get a second, or third, chance at correct placement. The sticky mount allows little margin for error.
