And another new plan for the bed.. turns out, with a slight modification, my metal frame fits perfectly…
Just need an extension to make it a bit wider..

I umphed, sort of..
Tired, but victorious! (and maybe a little sun-burnt.. lol)
Yeah, I didn’t wash the Whole roof, just where I needed to.. but they are adhered, bolted, and sealed! {thanks John, for the advice!}
2 sexy 9bb 100w panels ((and I have plenty of room between them and the roof vent, for my other panel off the crapi-van.))
And the connectors are bagged, taped, and zip-tied to the roof rack until I can get the gland and the rest of the solar (controller/battery/etc) moved over — but I ran out of ‘go’ for the day, and my legs and hands were cramping.. lol
Next weekend- move the rest from the crapi-van and pull ceilings and put JB weld on the downside threads. ((and probably add sound deadener and better insulation and disconnecting overhead lights from engine battery and running a wire set for house battery and … before replacing ceiling))
And how do you get dicor on the under/back sides of the mounts? With a flexible silicone straw (wound up cutting it in half..) and some duct tape! Worked great!

So I borrowed the switch-safety idea from Scott, but did it ”not Perrier” style
 LOL
Basic starter 5gal bottle fits easily under my ‘kitchen-desk’ with manual twist-knob style rechargeable pump attached..in crate to keep it in place. —- faucet facing aisle for ease of filling drinking, rinsing, dog water.
Simple.
The top is way too close to the underside to Ever be accidentally triggered.. y’all know my builds. Simple but elegant and functional

Sheesh you can drive a truck for ten years and no one calls you a truck driver but wash one set of solar panels with Perrier and.:: Lol.
Simple and frugal works well.
