Solar on curved rubber roofs.

This mounting kit includes stainless steel screws and washers to attach your panel to the mounting feet. My roof is also slightly curved so i made brackets myself from l shaped aluminum bars.

In rv you need to be able to get under the panel for cleaning and you will have to do a roof rubber replacement or re coating at some point. Z brackets are made for shore homes to be installed permanently on the rails.
