Ah, those parallel panels... A lot of wiring with not too much wattage. And he still had to cut the vent mesh, as I see.
Get 24V in series, 250-300W each, 2 or 3 of them, #10 or #8 MC4 cable, a single hole in the vent, no combiner box or posts. Plug and play all the way. Easy. This is what SMK here did, I did the same only with fewer panels and smaller controller.
MC4 cable enters the vent and then exits through the fridge cabinet wall into kitchen cabinet, no connections around the vent or in the fridge cabinet, uninterrupted cable run all the way to controller.
