Mount Instructions for 35W hood solar on 2020 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon

Thanks to John for his sharing of the installation of Lensun 35W customized flexible solar panel for 2020 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon. We developed two specs for this model, including the 35W and the 50W. He installed the 35W and tests it first.

50W panel is made with soft TPT backsheet, it fits nicely where the Hood bends which available at: https://www.lensunsolar.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=484&search=Jeep+Gladiator

If you do not know how to install the hood decal, pls check this video.

The following is John’s description of his installation.

  • I wipe the back of the panel with an alcohol pad before installing the 3M VHB tape.
  • I then apply a generous amount of 3M VHB tape. This step is completely subjective to the user on the amount of adhesive to use. I would always recommend to error on the side of more tape. I like to use a double strip of tape at the leading hood edge to ensure the front of the panel doesn’t lift off at highway speeds.
  • Perform a test fit of the panel on the vehicle using painter tape to finalize the placement before you stick it down. You only get one shot at this and sometimes it’s better to have an extra set of hands if the panel is too large/bulky to line up by yourself.
  • Peel off the double-sided tape and lay it down for good. Press along the edges and center of the panel to ensure all the tape is contacting the surface of the hood. Continue to lightly press and rub your hands over the entire surface of the panel to promote adhesion. Do not press too hard to avoid break the solar cells.
  • Pay special attention to the corners and sides of the panel as you don’t want those to lift. Find whatever you can to gently weigh down the panel for a few hours (or overnight to fully cure).

Finally connect the solar controller to the battery and solar panel, pls remember connect the battery first, then the solar panel. The solar controller has been pre-wired with fuses, terminals and connectors, easy to Plug-and-play.

And if you use the solar panel charge solar generator power station(such as goal zero yeti, jackery...etc), pls remove the solar controller, because most of the solar generator come with solar controller inside.

Lensun hood-mounted system is designed perfect for overlander, camper and traveler.

They give you longer overall battery life by tending it constantly during periods of sun exposure. provides power to keep 12v accessories like fridges, lighting, phones, cameras, radios etc. everything else charged.  Do not worry a dead battery while camping/off the grid.

In our product combination, you can choose a separate solar panel or a combination of controllers and decals.
