Guest, UPDATE We went through the site migration runbook and completed all steps. We will need to complete the migration next week, but will leave the forums up for the weekend. A few days after maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

I am sorry..I didn't notice that the panels are bolted to the top rack. That changes everything as far as weight carrying capacity. Nice!

I really dig the look.
They do make a universal one for the GX if you're running one of their racks. It is a slightly different looking panel, but maintains the same functionality.
Price is $169

I haven't installed (or recieved them yet), but I purchased some 12v heating pads for my battery, water tank, and propane tank.
I plan on doing some camping over the winter, but didn t think about heating these things when I built the trailer.
I heading out on a trip next weekend, so it'll be a scramble to get them wired and installed, but I'll get it done.

No need to apologize.
You are completely right about the suction cups for phones, tablets, etc. They don't always hold like they should, especially in NC humidity, lol.
The suction cups are only there for stability at the bottom, and greatly help with installation.
The panels are mounted with 4 bolts to a second panel section that then mounts with the supplied grade 8 hardware that comes with the roof rails for the roof rack - or they also supply 4 more bolts, washers, and nuts with the panel in case you don't have rails in that section.
It's very sturdy.
I weigh around 270 at 6'5 and I can't make it move at all once mounted.
I attached a few more photos of everything laid out to give you, and others, a better look at what all comes with it.

Got the Safiery LPG senders hooked up to the cerbo, took a little doing, apparenetly needed to have the 24v hooked up to the tank 140 input, 12v would cause it to not work properly. Also got the battery bank to work better with the cerbo, had to do some rewiring as the black series wiring didnt have both batteries in line to hook up to the Shunt properly. Finished the poly on the galley table as well. Last thing is still a work in progress, putting together a screen for the cerbo display to put in the black series control center since all the stock gauges are not being used. wrapping the screen in some wood trim to match the table. More pictures to come when projects are finished.

Replaced the inconveniently placed in tank fuel pump on the 2006 Rubicon LJ. Even found a bird nest in the fuel pump recession. Crazy.
