How Thick Is The Roof

[Stephen Birtles]

You will probably find that the roof is strong enough for the panels
the regular armour that is placed over the roof in MOST cases is just
screwed to the roof and well sealed they are not aligned with the
inside roof ribs
The method to to attach is to use z shaped Brackets and use the
factory frame on the panels use short brackets so air cannot get
underneath the panels and create lift when drivng placing strain on
the panels make sure holes are well sealed to prevent water intrusion
and you should have no problems wirng would run down througha vent or
if you choose a seperate hole with a clamshell cover over a bulkhead
feedthru again to stop the water intrusion. if you have any questions
drop me a line
