Just a quick question, how do you manage with roofracks and attaching the awning with either figure of eight or pole fixing?
Pics would be helpful.

This has always bugged me, :? some clamp/tie it to the rack. I use a 2 bow rack for my spare wheel so no prob if fixed over cab. click on link, then click on Kador convertor & all is explained in video.

No worries.
Looks like the roof rack will come off when we get to Cornwall, and then be refitted again when we go to the beach with the boards....

 

[terrier man]

I think you can fasten it to the far side of the rack with that method, seems a pain getting the rack off though not so bad for you as your lowered.

Try this for size, fits using figure of eight.

It's 6mtrs x 3mtrs approx.

And here's one of the inside

Ample room for the 2 of us and our dog Mollie

We've recently got an Outwell Mountain Road, used it last weekend for the first time. Very impressed with it.

Just been looking at the video for this awning on justkampers website - is there access to the van from the awning?

 

[valbarley]

Love this - any idea what make/model and whether it ships to the uk?

The way I make the awning fit with a roof rack is to cut the figure 8 into sections that fit between the clamps. This way you just thread them on the awning in the right order and provided there is enough tension they hold also very little if any rain comes in because it ends up in the gutter first.

Thanks for that information, thinking about it it's the most logical way & cheapest just have to go back to the fiqure 8 when using the roof rack & bugger the pole & clamp. :lol:

I like this one a lot, not too big and matches your bus really well. I like how the poptop almost looks part of it.
