This is an old idea (sort of). There has been a clear plastic bag camping shower for years. I used to use it mountain biking and camping. Fill the bladder and put on roof of car clear side up (black liner inside) and the bag heated up enough to provide enough hot water (really hot for a long race) to take a shower and drive home if not clean at least less dirty. same for camping. carry empty bag and fill with COLD river/lake water and in no time at all (or seemingly so) it would heat up for a shower campside.  
 
that said, this is a neat idea to have mounted on rack (my rain shower thingy used to hang off the top of my Isuzu Trooper)  
 
good luck to him. !

Looks good, but how long does the shower last? How much water does it hold?
