Hope that works for you. My son did the same exact mount in his Pathfinder and it wouldn't work. It has to be facing you. You can tilt it up like that but the controller needs to be facing front to back in order for it to sense the trucks movement right.
Here's a quote from the P3 instruction/installation manual:
1. Front of the P3 must be horizontal.
2. The P3 must be parallel to direction of travel.
The manual also has two pictures with arrows that show the rear of the P3 must be facing forward, towards the direction of travel. The two pictures give the impression it cannot be off more than a few degrees.
