In this video, we show you how we installed our roof rails that will allow us to attach the brackets to our solar panels so we don't have to drill into the roof. Sprinter vans come with grooves and pre-drilled holes, made for these rails. We got them on Amazon by a company called Vantech (link below).
Follow along on our journey while we build out a van, travel the world and Encompass Adventure!!
