Never thought about a wreck. My brother had a wreck in Dallas and ambulance call to take him to hospital. He ask the City policeman to secure his WC 1911 from console. Cop returned and said there was no Wilson in the car. WTF Brother never saw the gun again.
Bolt a holster of your choosing to the same spot if you think the magnet doesn't cut the mustard. Honestly - bolting a good holster in place is more secure in the event of a collision anyway. I'd rather not have a loaded gun come dislodged and bounce around the cab if I get hit, or god forbid, wind up in a roll over. Most kydex or leather holsters will attach easily enough.

Don't show him where to look say: "so it's not plainly visible?"I wanted a magnet but was afraid to get one. Follow along here. I
I get stopped in town show permit and tell the LEO I have a gun in the truck . His first question is where is the gun? I point to the (unholstered) weapon on magnet below steering wheel.
He looks in the window sees the gun and says a gun has to be in a holster. I had rather not be questioned.
