Does it even have to go on the roof?? Cause i think there would be better places that would be less noticible. Don;t want to mess the roof up do you? Or better yet have it smack off your head when your driving

u wil have to take the liner off to locate any of hte reinforcememnt bars that go across the roofline. if u dont screw into one of those, youre going to have screws comming out the top of the roof

Well first I would see about Velcro otherwise take off the headliner and look for the support beams as people have already said.....On a kind of unrelated note where do you get all of your scanner codes from?? A buddy of mine thats on the Fire Dept. told me about some website that he got a bunch of cordless phone frequencies from and among those got all the fire and police frequencies as well.
