Can Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awning Install Without Crossbars
Question:
I have a snug top that has tracks in the roof... no bars. There is a photos that looks like this would mount to the channel and no need for a cross bar of any kind? Is that correct or am I seeing things?

The Rhino-Rack Sunseeker awning, part # RR32133, does require crossbars or the Rhino-Rack Pioneer platform, all of which are linked, to mount on your roof. It does install into the channel on a crossbars that have one, which many do, but not directly onto the tracks you already have.
The picture you're referring to may be the one I attached. That's the Sunseeker installed in the channels on a the Pioneer platform. We do carry different sizes of the Pioneer that fit onto tracks like you have. Part # JA9084 is on example.
We carry track mount roof rack systems, like the Rhino-Rack # Y02-480B-NT, that have channels you can use the mount the Sunseeker. You do need to make sure you get the correct width to fit your tracks.
Another option we have are the Thule awnings; parts # TH490011 and # TH490018. They mount directly to the vehicle's sidewall although they might be too large for your truck bed cap.
