Several years ago I had a bunch of 8 X 11 SKYWARN stickers printed on
ScotchLite (a highly reflective material).  I went to a local sign shop
and purchased a roll of magnetic sign material and made my own magnetic
signs.  It works best if two people make the signs  --one holding the
sticker by the corners and another to pull a straight edge or ruler down
the sticker as it's being applied to the magnetic material (so no air
bubbles get trapped under the sticker).  I recommend spotters place a
sticker on each door and one on the rear of their vehicle.

It's been a couple of years but here's where I got them:
