Yes, in most cases, people only use magnetic lights temporarily, and eventually get tired of them for various reasons and end up permanently wiring tail lights.

However, I have found a way to use them, that eliminates almost all the issues folks have with them, sort of a 'best of both worlds' approach: Instead of putting them on the outside where they are prone to scratch paint and have to be put on, taken off each trip, I put them on the INSIDE of the vehicle, on the 'shelf' right behind the rear seats of the vehicle (Ford Fusion).

One piece of velcro on the bottom of the magnetic lights makes them stay put perfectly on the shelf back there. They sit behind the rear seat headrests where they do not block your view at all when driving the vehicle. You barely notice they're even there. That being the case, they pretty much stay there permanently, I never take them out. Sooo, same convenience of a permanently wired setup, without having to tap into hardly any of the vehicle's wiring. With how complicated the wiring is for our hybrid Ford Fusion, I decided early on that I did NOT want to tap into any of its wiring if that could possibly be avoided.

The other really cool thing about magnetic lights that I like: Years down the road when I trade this vehicle, I can remove the magnetic lights and their wiring in 5 seconds, and easily use it on the next vehicle we purchase to tow. No need to buy a new wiring kit and pay labor costs to wire taillights each time a vehicle is traded.
