Hi Stephen,

I do the same thing with my baywindow westfakia. It works pretty well. I
have also had good results from a "through the glass" cell-phone style
antenna mounted high on the rear side window glass on the driver's side.

Happy Trails,

It's a 6"x6" piece of sheetmetal screwed to the floor of the luggage rack (left front corner) to which the magnetic antenna base was stuck.  She said it worked fine, but it depends on how else you use your luggage rack.  I can post a pic if anyone is interested.
