Yeah that magnetic base works fine until you do 110mph 
;)....remember shawn???? After that spurt over 100 that magnetic 
POS was hanging on by my Zender rear wing!  Not to mention the 
scratches that it left on the paint on it's way down. Glad my car 
isn't painted nice yet! Oh yeah & that CHP that stopped us with it 
hanging of my hatch surely knew what it takes to make that come 
off.  You guys are welcome to borrow my CB & antenna if you can't 
figure anything else out....since I won't be there;)
