Our Ezy-Awning simply has a horizontal pole that fits inside the rain gutter, holding the awning to the van body. Specially designed padded clamps with wingnuts hold the pole in place. The water rolls off into the gutter on each side of the pole. When the awning is not in use, the pole collapses and goes into the awning storage bag along with the clamps. Simple, yet effective. - Ron Salmon The Bus Depot, Inc. www.busdepot.com (215) 234-VWVW _____________________________________________ Toll-Free for Orders by PART # : 1-866-BUS-DEPOT |
