Hi,
Can you rotate the vents so the lids "open" away from the panels?
Can you raise the panels up 4 inches? This will allow them to cool on the bottom side, while reducing possible shading from the vents.
Can the two "outside" panels be scooted back to the very edge of the roof, and moved to the very side of the roof?
Can the middle panel be moved forward and placed in a transverse manner between the A.C. shroud and the vent?
Or can the panels be staggered between the front vent, and AC. Another in the middle behind the AC shroud. The third panel at the very end of the roof? (this is what I would consider with 3 panels).
Another solution is to add one more panel. (this is what I would do).
