Long shot but has anyone got any pics of original awning fitted on a van?
Someone has copy of options brochure but can't find it anywhere.

This shows the YKK cartidge roll-out awning fitted on my old Bongo.
It is attached to the side of the Bongo using a combination of brackets attached to the guttering, and the AFT support loops. Fairly straightforward to lift on and off, but requires 2 strong chaps.

Has it got built in legs Ian? Are they any good?

Yes, it has built in legs. But the winding mechanism is a bit flimsy.
