Re: Awnings (Dormobile)

Thanks Matt. Given the fittings we'll need making I've been told the bar type ones I listed are easier to fit: otherwise I finish up spending more on some of the brackets than I save.... If I had workshop facilities (plus skills & time) it'd be a no brainer! We want a fixed system rather than mo...

Awnings (Dormobile)

Any recommendations that don't involve drilling holes in the back to fit the Carawagon types? I've been pointed at these, but wanted to check if anyone knew of (or made) a better option. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-5m-x-2m-Pull-Out-Awning-Exterior-Protecting-Outdoor-Camper-Travel-Shelter/3621224850...

Re: Dormobile roof parts.

Not sure if these are the best price, but this is more-or-less what I have on the roof on mine

Re: Dormobile roof parts.

You can get all the parts from Dormobile, but talk to them about the retaining catches as there are some rubber ones (look a bit like military bonnet latches) for a more reasonable price. Not sure what you mean by the large window. There should be two identically sized windows and a roof vent: it's ...
