My trailer is prewired for A/C from rear vent to front panel. It is unfortunate the wire isn't suitable for my solar install!

I was told they no longer bolt the panels down. they tell me there is wood blocks molded in that the brackets then screw to. I was thinking of getting the pre wire solar and i asked about this.I was also told to contact service for the location of the wood blocks.

I will need to phone Dave at ETI and see where blocks are. Are you phoning to enquire?

You noted that " they no longer bolt panels down". If mounting rigid panels how are they fastening to roof?

Do you see the bolts on the inside of the trailer?
