Default Eco-Worthy is a wonderful seller,

But this item offer the panels 2x100 monocrystalline for a let less. the PWM controller is junk, you shouldn't buy it. The panel mounts aren't the best shape for TM, either (their extremly small area will require roof piercings with screws, that's a VERY BAD THING).

Panels alone: $163.68 as a write this, https://www.ebay.com/itm/275170026488

Mounting brackets (get 2 sets): https://www.ebay.com/itm/373976309922

Solar wire: buy from WindyNation, on EBay or Amazon after you figure out how much you will need. You will probably want to buy more wire and cut to exact length, using MC4 connectors.

MPPT Solar controller: Buy a Tracer "BN" with room for expansion. This costly, but could also handle more panels attached on the front shell. You get more power from your panels using n MPPT controller, instead of using a PWM. 200 watts is the dividing line, MPPT becomes a better deal (instead of buying more panels) right around 200-300 watts).
