Back last summer Renogy had a big sale going on and I got two of these
https://www.renogy.com/100-watt-12-volt-flexible-monocrystalline-solar-panel/

They have six small gromet holes at the corners. I haven't been able to figure out how I want to mount them or where I want to mount them (though I think up front around the front vent fan)

How would you mount them? Should I put a "bracket" around the front leading edge to minimize and tendency for them to pull up when driving? Should I use the wide tape and do all 4 sides? Should i screw them to the roof, or glue underneath?

What do you guys suggest?

I've been setting up 2 100W rigid panels when we setup camp- moving them to the sunny areas. I'll likely keep one or both of them for when we have to camp in the shade.

thank you
