business (Triad Trailers), I applaud the 2 posts (reproduced below) by Stan 
regarding solar power on your R22. Please buy your solar panels from GB 
(and have him install them if possible), in an effort to repay him for these 
invaluable gems.

For those who have never had to fish wires through the space on top of and 
around the cabin, the knowledge of removing windows to access the cabin 
headliner space for wiring is truly worth its weight in gold. When 
replacing the windows, don't forget to properly clean and reseal them to the 
deck. In addition, knowing to mount the solar panels on a stainless plate, 
off the deck (air below for cooling), will add years of life to your 
installation.

Sometimes, the very small details are the most important, especially those 
learned through expensive experience. Thanks again, Stan.

take out a side window and you can fish thru the air space between the
headliner and cabin wall.

we have 10 watt panels that fit on the cabin tops next to the pt opening -
we sell them as a kit with diodes and mounting strips to allow air under the
stainless steel base plate.
