A cheap Ebay solar panel is fine, just dump the 10amp regulator and replace it with a decent one from Autoelec.com.au. I put in a 20 amp Projecta. It doesn't have the letters MPPT anywhere I can see but works fine. Keeps my CF40 and camp lighting running for extended periods without needing to start the car. Two days of really dull weather test it and that's when I switch over to the dual in the tub ( I run 3 batteries with one on the draw bar of the boat trailer). You can borrow mine if I'm not using it.

Update
New Wheels
So recently I put some new wheels on, nothing special but I must say it really changes the look of the car!
Once these were put on I grabbed the other half and went for a drive out the back of Walhalla!

Fridge Slide
Decided to make my own fridge slide! And I think it turned out great!
I'm and IT tech and I was lucky enough to come across some unused heavy duty server rails so I grabbed them, got some steel angle and got a mate to fab up the fridge tray!

After a quick paint job it turned out awesome! Very happy with it
