Solar panel to 2 batteries...
This is a total newb question but... I just purchased a 100W solar suitcase to use on my 2 12V batteries. I know enough about electricity to know I don't know what I'm doing and don't want to do any...

Connect in parallel as show.
Top battery is "lead"
Your batteries are hooked up correctly, and you should hook up the clamps from your solar panels at the exact same locations as the trailer terminals are hooked up on the batteries. Duplicate it and you will be fine. Positive red goes on one battery terminal of the first battery, and the negative black goes to the second battery and it's negative terminal.
