Something like this...
"How to make a solar power generator"
But I'm all about temporary gadgets that can be deployed and withdrawn at will. I'm not saavy enough to wire it into the car itself.

Those tiny panels can barely run a fan..
To get 200 watts out of those little portable panels, you would need
40 of them. At $3938.80 that's $19.69 a watt.
You could buy a Sanyo panel for about $5.52 a watt..
