I've enjoyed following the progress on your camper, Mike has done a great job.
It's a lovely feeling when you use it again. Regarding the awning, our old one marked our old paint, but our replacement one has elasticated sides so we can have a gap between it and the van, I'm sure you've got it in hand.

Yeah I know , must get the stickers sorted
and it did not go unnoticed especially by "Albatross" from this very FORUM and a couple of others
Thought the "fig 8" would give the gutter grief but that paint is tough stuff

none of the ones youve looked at will be any good,
I will take a detail picky this afternoon and post it up, the other important thing you have to consider is the actual effective radius you can acheive.... these ones work to a 50mm radius which is like a full on right angle, the rubber is very pliable, ovehall sizes are as;
glass 4.5mm
body 1.5mm
web 6.5mm
glass channel depth 7mm
metal channel depth 8mm
overhall height 21-21.5mm
I can supply by the mtr or yard

Micky do these seals have allowance for internal carpeting on the inside panels too?

if you mean the nice thin pliable easy to shape carpet! yes I think so, you will I reckon only need to tuck a touch under to get a nice clean edge,
I think if you stick the carpet on so its just short of the opening bthen fit rubber then glass, it should be ok , I have had the vernier in and it happy goes out to 3mm.
if you pm me your addy again I can stick a sample in the post to you tommorow to try.
