Honestly... suction cups slide on textured vinyl once cabin temps rise, and tacky gel types creep and smear. For textured dashboards the most heat stable approach is a rigid dash disk bonded with closed cell acrylic foam tape, or bonding a mount base with the same tape. Silicone gel pads and reusable putties tend to ooze and leave film in heat, and standard polyurethane foam tapes soften sooner. Run a small A B test on a hidden flat spot. Clean with mild soap then wipe with 70 to 90 percent isopropyl alcohol and dry. Apply 25 by 25 mm samples of acrylic foam tape, polyurethane foam tape, and a silicone gel pad, press hard for 30 seconds, then wait 24 to 72 hours. Hang about 500 g from each sample or push sideways with a spring scale to simulate load, then heat the cabin to roughly 60 C or park in full sun for an hour. Any sample that creeps more than a millimeter or releases fails. After cooling peel at a low angle and check for residue by touch and with a clean paper strip to detect oil transfer. If removability matters bond a rigid plastic disk with acrylic foam tape and attach the suction cup to the disk so any residue stays on the disk. Place away from airbags and steep curves. Expect to replace tape or disk after a few years of high heat exposure.

set these up for family all the time and a basic universal works with Samsung without any tricks. The TV will respond to standard IR for the basics and that is all you said you need. Choose a remote that can run two devices and has big high contrast keys so it is easy on the eyes and hands. Program the TV first with a Samsung code from the booklet, test power, volume, and input, then add the soundbar by brand. If you still have the original soundbar remote and the universal offers a learning feature, teach it volume up and down and mute so you are guaranteed a match. For the least fuss connect the bar with HDMI ARC and enable Anynet Plus on the TV so volume passes through. Keep both devices in line of sight and you will avoid missed button presses. No nonsense.
