in metro areas it should be fine as they are sattelite antenaes and terrestrial antennaes (just like your fm) the terrestrial section of the tuner box only works within areas with repeaters. suppose to work in tunnels, in metro areas of course. yet to try it. ive installed alot of them and no one has come back complainig yet. hope that helps.

Default most of the ant. that i have dealt with come both ways

they come with a magnetic base and you can ad the double stick for a more permanent mount. those of course being the roof or trunk mount ant. the glass mount is stick on and usually doesn't look that good on a car looks good on a truck though
