Unfortunately it fails on multiple counts.
First, the angle and screen combination make it very difficult to see anything useful in a normal driving position. Then the hot glue failed.

Im thinking of bending some scrap. 030 aluminium into a 15-20 degree angle. Attach with screws to the bosses in the garage door opener lid. Then attach with Velcro or similar the monitor. Should change the angle enough, and be virtually heat proof.
