Flexable solar panel UNDER rear seal

[Kmikesell]

OK brain trust!

I purchased a recommended solar system off of Amazon and it appears that the panel, if placed on the rear shell, would be overlapped by the front shell when closed by about 4".

A: Is there enough "give" in the shell seal to not put undue pressure on the solar panel?

B: Is the seal soft enough so as to not scratch the panel?

C: Could I lay a flexible panel transversely covering the center "seam" in the roof?

D: Should I forgo all the above and place it on the front shell and run a much longer wire lead to the batteries in the rear?

Thanks!
