I hit the road tomorrow if I don't post that means it works great I've heard of people putting the antenna magnet in a aluminum pie crust pan with the metal under it for an amplifier effect that was my original plan but I didn't have the .50 cent pan and the signal strength was the highest on both the measurements. Let me know if it works. If no metal plate use a soup lid or something like that

15 minutes ran the antenna up middle of windshield around upper glove box (to hold wire) then put magnetic antenna on a steel plate all interior setup I checked signal and both were great I was going to put a aluminum pie pan between the magnet and steel plate to amplify but it appears I don't need to if you don't have a metal plate I've heard soup can lids work btw mines a 2014 cascadia fiberglass and aluminum
Let me know if it works I'm road testing mine Monday if I don't post it means it's working great -
