Title: Rhino Pioneer Platform and Solar Panel
Post by: JnR_NaT on September 20, 2016, 10:14:51 PM

Hi all,

I'm running a Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform on my BT50 tow rig, and have just bought a 130w solar panel to mount onto the roof. How is everyone else attaching a panel to a roof rack?

Cheers

Grab some of these clamps, if you search "solar panel end clamp" on ebay you come up with a heap of sizes, just find the one that suits your panel thickness
