I'm getting ready to attach two 100W rigid solar panels to the roof of my minivan. My goal is to be able to attach and remove the solar panels each fall/spring since I only live in my van part-time during the winter. One option is using powerful magnets (https://cuttingedgepower.com/products/magnetic-spm), but I feel like I'd always be worried about them staying attached in high winds.
The better option seems to be attaching the solar panels to the roof rails. I can't seem to find any examples of doing this without some custom fabrication. Is there any type of standard fittings to help do this? Or are there cross bars I can connect to the roof rails which provide easy solar attachment points?
