Question:

Can you replace the solar panel with this bracket without removing the bracket from the rooftop? What height above the roof is the panel when installed?

No, you can't. You'll need to remove the panel to install the Replacement Mounting Hardware for Go Power Rigid Solar Panels item # 34272708. The solar panel will be mounted 1-1/8" above your trailer.

I will want to eventually remove the panel to clean the roof underneath. Do you think it is possible with the right tool (Maybe a rachet wrench) to remove the single panel mounting screw and then reinstall without having to remove the actual bracket from the roof? Looking for an easy remove and reinstall solution and not sure if a person can reach behind and do all of that with 1-1/8" of space.

@Bryant Yeah, I think that's possible. It's just going to be an extremely tight fit.

@JerredH Went to my storage and brought a mini 10mm rachet box end wrench. The screw thread goes so far down toward the roof that you can't put a closed end wrench over it. I suppose an open end would get me on it, but then I would be there all day trying to get it off.
