While I have seen pictures where individuals have leaned solar panels next to a post in the ground or next to their trailer, have you thought about how you are going to store the panel and security issues or do you plan on disconnecting each time you leave the trailer unattended for just a short period of time?
I use a 5 watt unit to charge and maintain my 2 batteries. The small panel is just placed on top next to my front vent and wires run down to my battery box. I haven't had a problem but I would worry about a 120 watt panel of that size being stolen. Unisolar makes a flexible panel that can be rolled up or just left draped over the top of the trailer and tied down. You still have to worry about someone walking off with it unless your trailer is always occupied or you have a dog on patrol.
