  Tinglebells - if you're asking me how I installed it, I didn't buy this.  Just posted it for others.

  Agree with Tabnero.  I purchased a 200W Zamp suitcase panel with my T@B.  I park my T@B in the shade and have the portable panels in the sun.  Will move them as needed throughout the day as the sun completes that thing it does.  That's why I did not buy the Costco panels depicted in my post.

  @tinglebells Flexible solar panels are not too difficult to mount on a 320. I used VHB tape along the edges and Eternabond along the leading (windward) edge. Others have mounted using caulk type adhesives.
  
  Edit: Decent flexible panels can be purchased for the price of the Coleman model described in this discussion, albeit without a solar controller. Here is a link to an HQST model that is currently under $100 (on sale).
