- This video is because George asked in the comments of my Dashcam unboxing video how to use the 3M Electrostatic sticky film mount that uses the mount that has a double sided sticky pad on it.
This same tutorial should work for most other Dash camera mounts too.
Hopefully this video is helpful and clearly answers the question.
Let me know if you have any questions, or if you have a suggestion for a future video.

Great explanation of the use of the static film. The little orange plastic pry bar is not for prying the mount off the glass, it is to tuck the wire into the headliner, “A”pillar and under dashboard trim without dismantling those pieces. It is a common tool found in any mechanics toolbox.
Thanks, good to know
Great clip, especially as it shows us how not to do it and then how to recover from the mistake... It answers all the questions :)
Thank you!
Thank you!
Happy to help!
Wise guy , great video
Thanks
Well Grant, I'm glad I watched this video. Thank you, sir.
I'm glad you found it too!
Great tutorial sir. Thank you.
I'm glad you found it helpful!
Can this electrostatic film be mounted on the black dots at the top of the windshield?
@@chuckjohnson5195 I don't think so
Great information. I would have probably mounted upside down also 😂 . Do you hide it when away from the car? Just concerned some fool will try to take it
No I don't hide it. They don't know if it's always recording or not
Terrific video/tutorial, and thank you! The electrostatic film looks to be quite large to where it would potentially obstruct the quality of the video being recorded by the camera. Is it? And do you think it would still work as well if you cut the film to be the size of the small rectangle in the center (where you place the mount)?
No, the camera sits low enough that it doesn't obstruct the view
Hello Grant, I have several of these ROVE DashCams and as many have experienced issues with the suction cup mounts falling off so I now have a mirror bracket mount which works well. I recently bought the newer version of this ROVE camera and want to install the older ROVE on the rear tailgate and all’s well with running the cable and rear plug in power supply and camera works great but due to the rear defroster lines the suction cup after time falls off. I’m wondering if I use the electrostatic film on the rear defroster grids and one day need to remove the film is it so sticky will it damage the grids. I’m guessing yes so then my only option would be use the sticky mount directly to the glass between the grid lines. Your thoughts are appreciated. Thank you, Tony
The film is designed to not leave any residue after its removed
I purchased the RoveR2-4K dash cam to record my off-road trails in Colorado. I had the suction mount, it never fell off but there was a terrible vibration that basically rendered the video unusable. Will this Rove Sticky Mount prevent the vibrations so apparent on gravel roads?
Probably not. You're better off getting a gopro. It has really great built in stabilization
Where do I get that film?
It came in the box with my dashcam
anyway to mount it from the bottom on a rail for the dash, kinda like a gopro?
You can simply use the stickey mount instead if the film
I've found you cant remove the adhesive from the film dropped my static now use less
The whole point of the static film is to not leave a residue if you ever have to remove it. I don't think it was designed to be reusable. I imagine if you kept the static film clean and then reapplied it to another clean surface would be reusable.
