Mine are 80W - I mounted them as far forward as possible and near the edges on our motorhome:

They could have had a bit more underside space to accommodate circulation, but they do fine for our needs.
Looks like you have lots of space, but as others have mentioned, make sure no shadows fall on any part of the panels. Even an antenna whip shadow will cause the entire panel to cease output.
