My Solar panel is now fitted at the back of the garage roof pointing so that it will get as much sun as possible. It is attached to a bracket which I had welded up and the leads come inside the garage roof and are clipped to the roof timbers and go down onto the battery in the car.
Hopefully it will keep the battery topped up now.
