Solar on my TC is one mod that I would never be without. 100 watt panel was installed at the factory, with controller. I later added another 120 watt panel. I carry 2 Group 31 AGMs. We dry camp alot and I could not be without my solar. If and when the weather would not cooperate, we have on board Onan genny. If your TC is solar pre wired, that means you have wiring from one point on the roof down to where the manufacturer would recommend installing the controller. Your manufacturer can tell you how to access it. If it was me I would not be that concerned with installing "tilt" panels, although some do and they seem to like them. I never wanted to hassle myself in climbing up on the roof to tilt them and then have to lower them before leaving. Both my panels are mounted flat on the roof of the cabover. Sometimes I will try to park in a postition where the panels will grab most of the rays. If I can't, I dont worry about it.
