Could you elaborate on what you rig this up? Is the bag sitting in the
luggage rack with tubing running back to the rear hatch? Or do you move the
bag back there as well? And what is a barbed coupling?

                "Also, the hose on mine is not long enough to use it while
it is on top of
                the car, so you really have to string it up in a tree or
something like
                that."

                I picked up some more tubing and a barbed coupling to
lengthen my solar
                shower. I put it on top of my open hatch and shower behind
the van... works
                great. You can either use a prop to keep the weight from
pushing the hatch
                lower or get a set of the stronger struts from Bus Depot.
