fiamma awning fitting

Post by paulhubbard »

Hi, Does anyone have an autosleeper pop top with a fiamma awning/canopy fitted. I ordered the T3 brackets but cannot seem to make these fit. Looking at the roof gutter this seems to be standard so these brackets should just pop on! Any info would be helpful?

hi thanks for the reply. I have the same brackets but cant seem to make them fit the gutter rail. I think the gutter rail may be modified. Did you find your brackets fitted easily?

They were fitted when I got the van but came off easily enough. When I get time ill photoshop the pics just showing where the bits fit . Have you tried fitting the brackets without the awning attached.

Factory campers have a different gutter to converted campers from my experience and they don't fit.

The ONLY gutter difference is early and late

Late gutters are L shaped and early ones are C shaped
