The suction cup end of the triangle is intended to go into the seam formed by the dashboard and the windshield and the springs are meant to hook to the defroster vents. Frequently those springs were worn out or too long and a bungee cord was substituted. Also, lots of Velcro. Sometimes we removed the springs and covered the bottom of the mount in Velcro and stuck it to the dash.
