'Need only one at lower, left corner of rear windshield. Driver and left
passenger door handles work well for moving along side of car. Antennas on my
previous cars (124 & 126), even when retracted, worked well to provide the
additional reference point needed at this corner.

They are really strong. One hopes no one would steal it.
You could find some with quick release triggers, and use them to walk your
way down the car, then put them in the cart with you and reverse the process
when you return to the car. I have never used them, but I imagine they would be
strong, reliable, durable and versatile.
I am sure there are self adhesive anchors which might work also, but they
could be a bit hard to remove without damaging the paint.

One on the lower, left corner of the rear "windshield" could probably work
for what I need.

Gonna try a small terrycloth towel to insulate my fingers & hands next
time.
A grab bar mounted on that left, rear corner could help. Yeah, I know;
a grab bar would get hot, too.

You could put white vinyl wrap on the parts you need to touch. Or the
whole car in some interesting pattern.
