Wind out Awnings with side pop tops

Post by A KIRK »

Ok I;ve seen lots of people have wind out awnings on their vans, but most seem to be on high tops.

Does anyone have a wind out awning attached to a side opening pop top? if so how is it attached to the gutter? Does it catch with the roof opening and closing etc?

Does anyone have any close up pics of how its mounted etc?

Thanks

Thank you

I;ve seen that, but thats for a westfalia style pop top I think. What I'm after is some pics of one fitted to the likes of a devon side pop top. As looking at it surely my roof clamps would be in the way.

I got lost looking on google, but I shall keep looking till I find what I'm after.

Cheers

Hey Andrew, how's it going? I have no idea where to get it from but I saw a Transit high top the other day with a Famia side awning that was in a soft zip bag. I reckon this would be a winner as it could potentially be stored in the van while the roof is down. I'm searching for one so I'll give you a shout if I find one (or two :wink: )

Gunslinger has a fiamma caravanstore on his (beautiful) devon pop top. Perhaps PM him for pics.

That's a Fiamma Caravanstore ... a good number of us have them.
