Whats the best method to stick on my Apexi turbo timer, its got some glue crap on the top and I tried dual sided mirror tape and it wouldn't hold. What should I use?

I found that double sided velcro tape is the way to go. I use this on my turbo timer and EBC.

Everything else i tried usually came off within a few days.

True , if you dont clean off the products that have been used over the years to keep the dash in good nick, you will never get anything to stick to it..
A quick *light* rub with some metho on a rag will work every time..
Double sided tape.. You cant really go past 3M.. Great stuff.

You say that you live in Killara well, the head office is only a hop, skip and a jump away for you.

This is held on with the double sided foam tape.
It has lasted for nearly 2 years and really hot days in summer.
