mounting a small flag on top - ideas ?
So here in Western New York, it's about to the point that anywhere you are, you can throw a rock and hit a Subaru. They're all over the place - which makes it difficult at times to find my car in a parking lot.
my last car had a stick aerial antenna on it, and I'd zip-tie a small American flag to it. Inexpensive, I'd just cut the ties off before going to the car wash. Made it easier to find my car in the parking lot (especially with my deteriorating vision and memory
) And being an Army veteran, it made me happy to fly a flag.
However my 2021 Limited has a shark fin antenna, so that idea won't work. I've been looking online to get ideas for a solution, but not seeing anything. I don't like the ones that put on a window and the rolled-up glass hold them in place. I'd prefer something that could fly a single flag, but I might go double with a USA/ POW-MIA flag setup.
I was considering getting an inexpensive roof rack bar, and cobbling up some kind of mount setup. I'd rather not pay huge prices for a premium bar, since all I'd be using it for was a flag mount, but all the reviews of the inexpensive ones indicate they suck - usually they don't stay put, and slide along the side rails.
So I'm asking the hive mind for any ideas. Once again, I'd just want a small to medium flag, so nothing that goes in a hitch with a long flagpole. And preferably something I could leave on at highway speeds. Thanks in advance for any ideas!

Do they have a problem a problem finding their cars? Neigh.You mean the Amish? Not a problem, they don’t have cars either.
I'll let myself out...
Surprisingly, no.Doesn't everyone?
I don't. I have an android tablet for some things, but I don't carry a smart phone around with me. Just a mobile phone, when I need to.
I like the 'paint it orange' and 'magnetic aerial mount' ideas myself A flag flapping in the breeze as I drove would irritate me - unless it was for a specific event..
