Hello Tee! Just a quick note. Watched a YouTube video just last night on a guy who was at the tiny house festival in NJ this year. He had a dark green Skoolie with a wood strip and fold down table on the side. Anyways....he was set up on solar. I'm off to work but I'll look up video and get a link off to you tonight. Looked easy. Have a great day. Andrew
