Is that still an A mount?
If they are made that way then, yes it would be still "A" mounting..

Oh yes opened sides will help A TON... Quote from Ethan (I think this is right)
"On a 4" panel the sides can add 60% more surface area".. Big number I would think... so if you are building your own you are better off just to rap the fiberglass then to frame it with wood..
