I didn't find a solution, there are suction mount lights but the price is eye watering. I was watching this thread in the hope that someone has found a better idea.
There are lights that sit on the dashboard and show through the windscreen. These probably would be a reasonable option at the front but I'm not sure how well they would work at the back especially through tinted windows.

I popped in here for the same reason - it wasn't until your thread I realised I wouldn't be able to mount the ridiculously expensive magnetic light bar I have!! Still looking for a way to adapt it to suction but pretty sure there's nothing off the shelf.
Would love to fit ambers in grills but for some places I go this isn't enough and it's a lot of work and expense when I'd need a roof unit anyway -

In your case I would fit a single roof bar towards the front and attach a metal "base" to this bar to put the light on when you need it. As for a bar, I'd get this one to keep it mounted as low as possible. The bar has a T-track so it wouldn't be hard to get a metal plate cut and attach it.

Be interested in what you decide on.
Its been a conundrum for me also.
I carry a spare mini magnetic mount bar which i can "perch" on top if static in an emergency.
Not required it yet as generally i'm in my other vehicle which is kitted out with ambers.
Will say the dash mounted Windscreen ambers with suction cups are incredible, I'd highly recommend this one:

They also do a Suction Light bar but not cheap...

So,,,,
To date I have some in the rear windows now, with the RSG shields to stop the light reflecting inside. Powered off of a £5 eBay relay.
