You can't use standard heavy panels. You must use cells configured properly and self encapsulate using special plastic heat shrink and a hot air gun. They must be integrated into the roof of the vehicle. I've seen it done. This is much lighter and makes for a working solar vehicle.
How well would that heat shrink material stand up to hail? At a minimum I'd think you would need some epoxy/fiberglass type protection over the top of the cells if you didn't have glass like the standard heavy panels.
