You do realize even a small unregulated solar panel can over charge and damage the battery?
I have found that putting the solar panel behind vehicle glass tends to cut panel output by around half.
I have 180 watts of solar on top of my suburban and I would not expect it to increase fuel economy unless the belt is removed from the alternator.
A small solar panel like that, with its output cut in half wont do squat.
Save your money, do aero mods.
