Will The Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awing Mount To An Arksan Roof Rack Cargo Basket

Question:

can this awning connect to the side of an arksan roof rack cargo basket? the round side rails are about 1inch diameter. Would like to connect this awning to those side rails. Wondering about the attachment hardware.

The Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awning # RR32132 uses brackets with t-bolts and is designed to slide in the accessory slot of a crossbar, as you can see in the attached video below. You won't be able to attach it to the roof basket, but depending on the length of crossbars you might be able to slide the basket over and attach the awning. If your crossbars aren't long enough then let me know the year/make/model of your car and the roof rack system you have and I can see what we can do to increase the length of the crossbars.
