Adding solar to 2007 Hawk

[Mtngirl1018]

I am trying to figure out the best method of adding solar to our 2007 Four Wheel Camper (Hawk)
After searching it appears there are no cords or access points to the roof. Some posts have said there are some under the lift panel but that is not the case with ours.
Does anyone have thoughts on the best way to run wiring to the interior of the camper that allows for slack when lifting and lowering the top?
Any help would be much appreciated!

Here is what we did a long time ago -

Wiring a FWC or ATC for a Solar Panel Roof Mount

Thank you! This is so helpful!

There is a write up in my Puma build thread of how I added solar and another on solar wiring repair/upgrades. And +1 to what Ski3pin posted.

I have a 2006 Kestrel (Hawk). I took my camper to FWC 5 years ago to get them to install the solar connection on the roof. If you have a 2007, I'm sure its similar to mine, the wires were pre-run behind the lift panel and under the roof skin. Mine were hidden and I couldn't see them.

FWC had the approximate location of the wires under the roof in their files, and used pressure on the roof to determine the exact location for drilling a hole and mounting the solar connection plug.

I can post some photos later.
