I think I'm just going to use the 5000 Mag mount for the time.
I will think about this later.
Thanks for all the input.

and one of these:
Drill the hole out to 3/4", the dielectric on the mount is raised so the saw blade will stay centered and the Carbide teeth will dig into the underside of the trunk lid/deck for an excellent ground and zero flex. Install the insulator correctly (raised lip goes down into the hole to keep everything centered) and instead of the star washer I use a Stainless Steel flat washer (.5"ID x 1.25"OD x .085") to evenly distribute the load across the insulator and weatherproof it at the same time.
I have the Sirio 4000 mag mount on my wife's car and the sirio mag base is the strongest I have ever used.
