Owned a Civic and Cavalier at that time. It was "stuck" to the "front and bottom" facing the radiator. And the wires were about 6 feet long, so it was tied to the radiator grille to prevent it from getting lost should it come off. No, it did not come off but it was used on plowed roads for the most part. The times when I had to plowed through snow, it was soft snow so that did not affect it.
