Solar panel installation
Hi All. Any recommendations on how or even if is is possible to secure a solar panel to an aftermarket fibreglass elevating roof?

Re: Solar panel installation
You don't have the lifting screw holes available on aftermarket roofs so the preferred method is not available 
The only other option I have seen is to use a flexible panel and glue it on, best to use a corrugated layer between it and the roof as it will allow cooling of the rear of the panel which will save you loosing 10-20% of the possible energy due to the rear of the panel heating up, it also extends the life the of the panel it appears.
