Excellent news thanks so much for your help guys going to order the kador and figure of 8 now.

Thanks Maz. Going to check the ykk has the little channel at lunchtime to be sure and post a picture then will order some. Would i require 3m of the kador and 3m of the figure of 8? Or less than that?

woohoo this sounds perfect going to buy 3m of kador and i guess 3m of figure of 8 and hope thats the right length not got the awning yet but need to get attachment sorted for when it arrives.

Ah i will have a look later and take a picture and upload on here. That's a great help seeing your pictures. Do you then wind in the YKK once its connected. This looks a very neat way of attaching the awning so i hope its possible with the YKK.

I will take a close look and maybe post a picture for you to see, i think you maybe right but im not 100% sure either. Here is one of the awning itself with the roof up but i will take a close up view later to look for the channel for the kador to attach into. Would i buy kador in the exact length a...

That's interesting where does the kador connect on the ykk?

What is kador?
Might try cutting some figure of 8 to attach then just don't want to mess it up.

Do you have a ykk awning attached? Any chance of a picture?

Ok thank you i will give it a go when it arrives, i didn't know if i should buy some fixing stuff etc. Will this method provide a secure enough fit to a bongo to prevent flapping about in winds etc? Sorry for the silly questions but i have never had a awning before and know v little about them.

what should you attach them with? the velcro straps that come with the awning?
Would a figure of 8 work if i cut it to lengths to fit between the ykk brackets?

Just purchased the outwell country road awning for my Bongo. But don't know what to buy to attach it to my Bongo. I have a auto free top with a ykk canopy awning attached. Any help or places I could get advice much appreciated. I live in Devon Cornwall area.

That's very helpful. Esp the ribbon strip. On Amazon one person said it collapsed and exposed the contents they left in it. And something about it not being sealed very well when you drive away and the end that attached to the van flaps about a bit. I'm thinking this might be the best choice what's ...

I am pretty keen on this awning, and hearing positive things from you guys is good. But looking at other reviews on amazon not so good. They seem to suggest if you use it as a driveaway awning it will collapse in high winds and that you need to buy extra guylines etc? Have either of you tried this? ...

Anyone else got any awning suggestions before i decide what to buy?
