I went ahead and made a 3" x 3" metal plate (none were included in my kit) and stuck that on the dash. The antenna reception is MUCH better but still not great. I guess the satellites are really low on the horizon in my area and again there are lots of trees too. I might still go ahead and mount it on the roof but the magnetic base wont work on the aluminum so double sided tape might not be the most reliable in the blazing Florida sun. I'm also a little concerned over causing a leak in my weatherstripping for the cable exit. I hope nobody tries to yank it off either. Thanks for the help guys.
