i have a pred 10-k on big rig. love it. but what would be best for my 4 wheeler? do they make a pred 10-k to install on roof of cars,vans e.t.c. i will not be taking radio in & out. it will remain in vehicle. also going to buy & install connex 4600 turbo w/ s/w/p in future sooooo.... i dont think a mag mount will work, as i hear the temp under magnet will get hot & cook paint under it... that is due to amp.. thats what i read anyway. if i had mirror brakets like my big rig, i would have no prob just getting another pred 10-k but it dont.. i am not up to speed on options out there sorry...

You aint going to fade your paint with 300 watt radio. I know guys that have ran 1500 watts into a mag and never hurt there paint of course a mag may scratch your paint. But trimags are a awsome soulution for someone not wanting to drill a hole. Thanks and god bless

if drilling a hole in the roof or trunk lid dont bother you get a puck mount and put the 10-k on there. I ran a tri mag and it didnt bother my paint and i was kickin over 1500 watts so if you would rather do the mag mount i think you will be fine in that aspect.
