The 52W Hood Solar Panel is a custom-fit hood-mounted 12V solar solution for Ram Promaster vans from 2013 to 2022. It is designed to help keep a starter battery, auxiliary battery, or compatible power station charged during daylight without taking up roof or cargo space. Unlike portable panels that need to be set up and stored, this panel mounts directly to the hood for a clean, space-saving install. The custom hood shape, plug-and-play wiring, and lightweight, flexible construction make it a practical option for overlanders, campers, and van owners who want simple charging while parked or off-grid.
This panel is shaped specifically for the Ram Promaster hood, 2013 to 2022. If you have a 2023 or newer Promaster, you need a different version. Review the variant options below to confirm whether you want the panel only, panel with vinyl decal, panel with MPPT controller, or the complete kit.

Orion Van Gear offered the best pricing on my two new MaxxAir MaxxFan Deluxe fans and they arrive SO fast. The install on our our 5th wheel went exceptionally well. Thank you for the great experiences.
The Orion roof rack I got from Orion for my transit mid roof 148 was a piece of cake to install. I was delighted with how easily it went together! My older son was unable to help that day but even so I got it done in about 4.5 hours. The Instructions are clear, the materials are all clearly labeled. There was no grinding, or tweaking of any kind needed! Can’t wait to get the roof panels!
Pictures look great!
22 day delivery time. I guess it happens often with USPS going thru L.A. Update. Issues with this order and delivery have been resolved. Thanks for the quick response.
I mounted the lights and I was very pleased.
Purchased a Stealth+ Roof Rack for my Ram Promaster Low Roof (one of the few options available for the Low Roof Promaster) along with a few other items. We are very pleased with the engineering, fitment and appearance of the rack. We hit a couple of install bumps along the way but were blown away by the rapid response of the Orion Team anytime we reached out to them. We will definitely be working with them again as our van build progresses.
