Expert Answers about Chevrolet Car Awning


  • Does Kelty Waypoint Car Awning Work With Rooftop Cargo Box
  • Yep, the Kelty Waypoint awning will definitely work with a rooftop cargo box like the Thule Force XT L # TH6357B. You'd have to lift up the back of the box for a second to quickly get the strap around the crossbar so you can tighten it, but that's it as far as getting it to work with a cargo box. So this is a really simple, inexpensive way to get some shade at the rear of your Subaru, and the awning is also available in your choice of colors: - Olive Drab and Dark Gray: Kelty Waypoint...

  • 20x10 Manual Awning For Race Car Trailer
  • I recommend using a Solera Destination Manual RV Awning kit Item # LCV000335274-334719. This is a 20' wide awning that comes with everything to get it installed. The canopy extends out 9.8'. Each arm is spring assisted to ease rolling out the canopy. The fabric is a 13.5-oz vinyl that won't crack or fade. The awning kit also comes with an aluminum canopy shield to protect the canopy when it is rolled up.

  • Recommended Car Awning For A 2014 Subaru Outback Wagon
  • The car awnings that we currently carry require crossbars in order to mount so you would first need a roof rack. If you don't have one then I recommend the following components: Yakima HD Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 55" Long # Y01156 TimberLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y33TR HD Bar SL Adapter # Y03541 From there you could use a straight awning like the Yakima SlimShady Awning # Y36VR you were looking at or go with a larger wraparound awning like the Rhino-Rack Batwing Awning...

  • Will the Rhino-Rack Batwing Awning Work With Square Crossbars
  • The Rhino-Rack Batwing Awning part # RR33200 can only be installed on crossbars with top channels which square crossbars don't have. Therefore, a better option would be the Yakima SlimShady Awning part # Y36VR which uses wraparound clamps. The height of the vehicle would not be an issue for either awning.

  • Car Awning That Fits Yakima Round Crossbars
  • There is an awning that attaches to your Yakima round crossbars, though the Thule awning you asked about only mounts to aero and square bars. For an awning that attaches to round bars you'll need one from Yakima: - Yakima SlimShady Awning # Y96VR The # Y96VR is an 8' x 8' awning that clamps onto your crossbars and comes with adapters needed to mount directly to your round crossbars.

  • Does the Kelty Backroads Car Awning with Sidewalls Need A Set Of Crossbars For Install?
  • The Kelty Backroads Car Awning with Side Walls # KE98KR you mentioned actually does not need a set of crossbars to work! There are straps that will allow you to connect to your vehicle's wheels without a roof rack.

  • Car Roof Rack Awning Recommendation
  • I spoke with Rhino Rack and they stated the Rhino-Rack Batwing Awning - Roof Rack Mount - Bolt On - Passenger's Side - 118 Sqft Item # RR33200 would be fine in moderate wind with the guy ropes attached and the stakes in each leg. The hinges were designed to break first to save the rest of the awning from being damaged so that's why there's a wind warning. Typically awnings would need to be put up in 20+ mph winds so if you wanted to you could use this awning but if the wind starts picking...

  • Is There An Awning for Round Roof Rack Crossbars
  • If you want to install the Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awning part # RR32132 you'll need a crossbar with integrated top channel, there are no exceptions to this nor can I recommend any modifications. That said, we do have roof rack mounted awnings that don't require crossbars with a top channel, the Thule HideAway Awning - Roof Rack Mount part # TH490010 or part # TH490008 which are compatible with round crossbars.

  • Recommended Awning Options For A 2016 Winnebago Winnie Drop 1710
  • Currently the smallest sized complete awning kit we carry is the 11' wide # LCV000334909-362243. Solera will custom make awning kits, so the awnings you see on the Winnie Drops are most likely an OEM custom order. Solera will also make custom orders for the public so you can go that route to get a perfect fit for your 2016 Winnebago Winnie Drop 1710. If that's not something you'd prefer to do then we also carry smaller car awnings like the Thule HideAway Awning # TH490018, which can be...

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

  • How Much Room Is Needed To Mount The Thule Overcast Awning On Thule EVO Aero Crossbars
  • The Thule Overcast Awning - Roof Rack Mount - 6' 6" Long x 6' 6" Wide # TH8002AW604 is able to be mounted past the feet of the crossbars as long as the edge of the mounting hardware lines up with the edge of the crossbar feet (pictured below). The mounting hardware and awning is go to be approximately 4-5" wide when closed up for travel. Because of this you'll have plenty of room to mount the Overcast awning in the 6-1/2" space from the edge of your roof rack basket to the end of your Thule...

  • Can The TempMinder Wireless Thermometer Outdoor Sensor Work In Direct Sunlight
  • The TempMinder Wireless Thermometer and Hygrometer # MRI-822MX manufacturer recommends placing the sensor out of direct sunlight for an accurate reading. Kind of like how when you leave your car in the hot sun the temperature gauge will show a lot higher and will slowly drop to an accurate reading as you drive. If you have an awning on your trailer I recommend placing it under the shade of the awning to help keep the sensor accurate.

  • Can Yakima Slim Shady Roll-Out Awning Y07409 Install on Yakima Roof Rack on Tear Camper
  • Yes, you can mount the Yakima SlimShady Roll-Out Awning # Y36VR to the Yakima crossbars that are mounted to the top of your teardrop camper as long as those crossbars are spaced apart at least 24-inches on a flat surface. This particular bar spread is required for stability but the SlimShady installs on just about any size and shape of crossbar, including Yakima round bars like # Y8810025, Thule square bars like # TH712400 and even the wider elliptical/aero-style bars like the Thule AeroBade...

  • Can Rhino Rack Dome Awning Install on 2017 Toyota RAV4 OEM Roof Rack
  • The Rhino Rack Dome part # RR32125 that you referenced requires a roof rack that has top channels on top of the crossbars which your 2017 Toyota RAV4 bars do not so what you'd need is the Rhino Rack roof rack part numbers # RRVA126B-2 and # RRSX100 and you'd be set since this rack has top channels.

  • How to Install the Rhino-Rack Sunseeker on a Vehicle with Factory Crossbars
  • The Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awning, part # RR32133, mounts to either the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform or the T-slots of other crossbars. Your 2017 Honda CR-V with factory crossbars do not have T-slots, so your only option is to attach a Pioneer Platform. The small capacity universal one is part # RR42114BF. The Sunseeker will attach directly to this. I've linked to a video review of this platform for you to look at.
