Hi Drew
The reason I ask is the price you pay for an awning, sides, front etc you could buy a stand alone Awning and have loads of change. We bought a stand alond so we could leave all the gear out and drive to........

Once you are used to putting one up it does not take all that long and is a lot stronger in winds.

I am in the process of selling a lot of items we will no longer be using due to van change. The kids are not coming anymore so we will travel a lot more.

See the items I have in the classifieds and I have attached our Stand alone so you can see what I mean. It may be your solution, it would certainly be a cheaper option by far. Cost us Ģ380 new, if interested make us a reasonable offer around Ģ200+ish ono.

Have had fiamma ZIp & are very easy to use & good in strong winds provided they are pegged out right.Make a good outside room when staying for any length of time and have used even for just two nights.Dave
