Fuzion 310 Solar Wiring Advice Needed

Hello, I'm planning on installing a solar system (electrical - not the planets) on my 2013 Fuzion 310 FW Toy Hauler and have most of what I need to do figured out but if anyone has had this done or done it themselves on this model, I'd like to know how the wire from the panels on the roof to the charge controller were run. I suspect I've got to remove my control panel for all the light switches, generator start, etc. next to the entry door and either use a drill bit on a flexible shaft to drill up from the panel opening and through the roof. Before I proceed I wanted to see if anyone else had any advice or comments on their solar installation experience that they could pass on to me so I can avoid any unforeseen obstacles or issues. Thanks in advance, Mike.

Mike,
I have 2012 310TS. I ran a wire down the rear wall (between Kitchen
and garage) by drilling right next to the sewer vent. I think there's a vent in the wall where your thinking of running the solar wiring also. I used an "18 3/8 bit from the roof down and sealed the roof entry when done. On mine you can access that wall's interior by removing the control panel. Good luck!
Steve

Mike -

Is there any possibility of running the wire from the panel over to and down the fridge vent? Not sure what is inside the vent once the cap is removed. Might be worth a try and if it looks feasible, it would save drilling holes in the roof/ceiling.

In my 2013 Fuzion 310 the fridge is against the garage wall of the "main" room and my monitor panel is on the opposite, forward wall of the main room shared with the bathroom. My basement storage where I've got my inverter and in front of which is my battery compartment so my plan is to remove the panel and run the wire from the room down through this wall, exiting below the floor where it can be pulled over to the basement storage. I guess I could use the bathroom vent plumbing route but the wires need to go to the solar controller before the batteries so I don't think that's the best way. I wanted to see if anyone had done this so I could compare designs. Thanks.
