With pure dumb luck I discovered the perfect kind of solar panel and how to attach it to a vehicle back in 2010 when I found some broken portable taxi way lights and harvested the solar panels out of them.

Also read and adhere to all warnings about adding solar panels to a vehicle electrical system here.

If it's not going to be done correctly save your self a lot of time and money and don't do it at all.
