A bit help please (ground Plane)

Hi Guys, I have purchased a new antenna for our rig so that we may get a bit better reception when traveling, i have researched a bit and found the one we have purchased is quite suitable for our means.

It has a magnetic base, and that is all good, however it says that it needs to be stuck to some sort of ferrous metal to work to its highest potential.

Our rig dose no have a metal roof, so how would i go about this, and how beneficial would it be anyway.

It suggests a metal surface no smaller than 25 cm square and the larger the better, it has to do about Ground Plane

Many Thanks.

Leon
