^^^^^ This. They are fantastic. I have been using them for at least 10 years. When you do apply enough pressure for a long enough period of time, the mount is rock solid for years on end. I currently have one strip on each side (driver and passenger) not too far from the lower corner of each side of the windshield. These were two previous locations for the little square antennae head for my XM radio (when I had that hooked up). I left the 'dash side of the lock' in place on each side to occasionally use with other accessories. I've found it is best to make sure any aftermarket protectant has been removed from the mounting location prior to mounting. I've always purchased these at Radio Shack for less than the amount you stated, but now I can't find them on the Radio Shack website. Good to know that Office Depot has them.
