Solar Installation on a 2012 38BR

Hello All,
Sitting here watching the snow come down and musing about finally doing a solar panel installation on my 2013 38BR. I have the Onan genset but I am looking to have solar as an option as well.
My Redwood is snuggled in a huge equipment shed down the road with 20 other RVs till Spring so I cannot access it.
I have been searching the forum posts for some information but don't seem to be getting very far.

There is a forum member near me (Goderich, Ontario) who has completed his Redwood. I believe he lives in Grand Bend but cannot find his posts.

I already have five 100 watt 5.5 amp panels and I have talked to a Victron Energy rep in Quebec that can source all the components.
I will need to fish the wires from the roof down the wall between the shower and the electrical closet. Those wires will drop behind the basement wall right beside my Dirt Devil vacuum.

What I need is photos and measurements of the basement and battery compartment that I can send to plan the Victron component and battery locations and layouts.

Can anyone help me?
