    My heart tends to want things that look cool! lol

    but I’m always running out of room on trips - driving out to Colorado, we’ll pack clothes for two, ice chests, bikes, fuel, recovery gear, tons camp furniture and luxuries, on top of various outdoor gear for cycling (helmets, spares, etc.), climbing (shoes, rope, harness), hiking (poles, spikes, boots), and I’d really love to bring a canoe next time … but we’ll see what Santa brings

    Here’s the lower support bar for my solar panel glued onto the window with silicone glue- but you can also use 3M extra strength double-sided tape, it’s definitely strong enough to hold the lower part of a molle panel mount. You could even glue the bar onto the lower window frame using the tape, that would work well too, and you’d be able to still use your slider window if you have one.The top is mounted to my “Prinsu-like” roof rack with hinges.

    Oh, could you post picture(s) of how it's mounted to your roof rack? That's what I'm still a little unsure about how to do

    My setup is pretty DIY- I used stainless hinges so that I can rotate the solar panel up towards the sun and fold it back down flush with the camper. if you’re doing this, I would use aluminum bars instead to mount your molle panel, and bend the bars to follow the contour of your camper and attach firmly at the bottom, either the way I showed with a aluminum cross brace taped or glued to the window or the window frame, or drilled into the frame.

    …If you’re curious about it, the black horizontal pvc pipe shown in the photo is a pull out frame for a shower enclosure.
