            Roof  top mounted panels do not need to be permantely mounted.
My install  is so that the panel is hinged with stainless boat hatch hinges
which allow it  to be angled side to side or removed.  I have a 100"
extension cord divided  up into three sections.  See my _Vanagon Westfalia Solar
Panel_ (http://frankcondelli.com/solar.htm)   webpage for pics and details.
