Yes It is magnetic!
I personally don't like to see things popping out of the dash lol
So you ran it up the A pillar and under the headliner around where the visor is? Maybe we should send Jeff an email and see if he can get Dynavin to provide a slightly longer antenna.

I'm surprised to be honest, it shouldn't be the location of the antenna that's the issue maybe the antenna itself?

I retrofitted OEM navigation on my 2008 VW GLI about 5 years ago and the universal GPS antenna I bought from ebay was magnetic and just stuck on the metal frame behind the unit and was hidden in the dash underneath the vent control.

Whats the plug like on the connection to the antenna? For probably $20 more if I can get a stronger antenna on ebay and can just hide it behind the unit in the dash I'd probably rather do that.
