Pull out canopy side or rear without a rack?
Hello

Without a roof rack is there such a thing as a pull out canopy either long ways down the side or over the rear door?

I've seen the type on a VW T5? seems to attach to gutter. would that work?


Thanks

I've got a Fiamma F35 Pro on the side of mine but I made brackets up to go onto the LR rack.
You could make some gutter mount brackets, the Fiamma is held on by a standard caravan awning rail so you can just buy a screw on rail and make brackets up to suit. I don't think they have a gutter mount suitable to buy, they are all bespoke to different vans, although they do have a kit to fit onto just roof bars.
Have a look here,

Depending on how often you plan on using it this might be an option

I imagine not as quick as a pull-out one but it is cheaper, covers a larger area than a pull out one and, attaches to the vehicle without having to bolt anything on. If you're only going to use it a couple of times a year I think it would be great.

We are actually working on a set of gutter mounts for our awnings Smile
