My Solar Panels on my 2007 H-36 and been working real good since 2010
and just showing Hunter with the Arch how easy and less cost adding my 2-190 watt panels
that I got here in Miami Fl.
I do have more detail photo's of install in my profile ablum section.

You nailed by thoughts on install. I have 2003 356, what was the total project cost? did you do the work or contract it? Total output 380 watts? who many AMPS in your battery bank? thanks, Jim K from Bradenton, FL

I did the install with out any real help other extra hand lifting the panels
to mount them.
I will need to check my $$$$ spent and have 4 -6 volt T -105 .
But with panels,wire,charge controller and remote monitor for charge controller ,stainless less than $1000.00.
The cost will vary with panel pricing and price of charge controller that is used.

I have recently done the same thing to our boat, mounted on the bimini top... with 2 140w kyocera panels, aluminum to make the frames, delrin to make the mounts, all the stainless hardware, an mppt bluesky controller, AND remote monitor, with #4 wire and end lugs to connect it all together, it cost $1265, including all shipping costs...
if one is willing to shop around, its so much cheaper to put a kit together ones self than it is to purchase a kit....

the easy part is done, but the wiring is taking place this weekend...
