hmmm... you know they have that stainless steel model... but even it doesn't look that exceptionally great....

thing is... you could put one of these actually on your glass itself... no sure where though... the far rear would get back flow from the exhaust when driving....

And so maybe at the rear most of the side glass... closer to where your head is when you sleep... and you could use rechargeable batteries... maybe that would work... would be easier, I think than installing on the roof... and in fact... if you change your mind you could change the glass back easier than changing the roof back... but stainless steel on glass??? not sure how tacky that would look... so you could actually have the metal frame painted.. and if on glass tinted as dark as possible... 

and... you could even put one of these things on a cargo box, esp the black painted thule boxes..., and help keep the contents from frying.. but how water proof is this thing really?.... like if snow melts on it...
