Fiamma awning with side lifting roof
Posted: Mon Apr 20, 2015 7:04 pm
I've got the JAL mushroom roof, which opens from the passenger door side, and I'd like to get a Fiamma 45s awning.
Does anyone have any experience with this combination - or a similar one?
When travelling solo, I won't be able to lift the roof from the centre as usual, but I've been experimenting and I can lift it with a pole from the rear corner, and then the gas struts do the rest.
Tucking the vinyl back under the closing roof might be a bit fiddly, as I'll have to reach over the awning casing, but it looks doable.
But I'd welcome some advice before I shell out £500 or so!
Thanks in advance.
