Trooper solar panels fittment.

Post by KOTSY »

Hi everyone, not sure if this should be on this forum so sorry if not.
I have a 1990 1.6 TD and would like to fit solar panels to the roof. As the roof goes up front to back and over hangs
i wondered about fitting the wires. Anyone fitted to this type of roof before ? If so any pics. Please. Added some photo’s to show what I mean . Cheers Pete.ImageImageImage

Does anyone know what happened to James? His blog dried up, shame because it is an excellent resource.

I wonder if he still owns his T25?
