DO NOT DRIVE WITH THIS PRODUCT ON YOUR JEEP or BRONCO!
Here are some tips we recommend for optimal suction and adherence to your windshield.
Before using the Dash Poncho for the first time, clean your window and the suction cups. Make sure both are dry. Make sure you push the cups completely to the window, with no air between them. If the weather is especially hot or cold, that can make them less effective. When the suction cups get old and are not as pliable, we recommend replacing them.
We live in Texas, where it is HOT most of the year. We recommend that during your hotter months if the cups are on the windows for extended periods, they can become less effective.
If you purchased our Dash Poncho before 2020, we have found that some Krazy Glue or Locktite in the provided thumbtack before hanging helps prevent this. You can also send us a note and we will send you our latest suction cups that dont require this method.

The instructions below are also included in your carrying bag with your Dash Poncho, and a QR code with our install video is available for quick reference.
1. Before installing your Dash Poncho, tighten the suction cups that are already installed on the top of the Poncho.
2. Along the top of your JEEP windshield, remove or move any stickers or labels on the interior that may cause the suction cups not to stick. This is highly recommended if you want maximum protection. We put our required tags or stickers on the bottom left side of the windshield.
4. Next, center your Dash Poncho on the windshield and use the suction cups to hold the Dash Poncho at the top of the windshield. Always flip your visors down after installing. This will ensure that water will drain downwards to the floorboard, should it rain and also secure the Poncho on hot days.
5. Hook the bungees to locations on your JEEP that will secure the Dash Poncho to your dashboard. You can hook it to the front window hinges, your door mirrors, bottom of the dashboard, center console or any place else you can hook the bungee—instruction video below. Scan QR code.
