After wiring and setting up all the electrical components, one more step was left to complete our setup and reach full autonomy.
This step was characterised by installing our solar panels on the roof.
This panel are A-grade monochristalin 200W from Renogy.

However, we wanted to have a roof rack installed on the roof so we wouldn't have to drill more holes to attached the panels.
We ended up buy brackets that would be mounted in the roof gutter and inter-connected with Aluminium cross bars primed and painted in black (just an esthetic matter).

Having two of them connected in parallel (Red/Red & Black/Black)so 400W installed will allow us to recharge our batteries while stationary, at a rate of 20A/h .

Once again, we are not professional, this set-up has been done based on our own researches so please do so.
