Awning to Fit Camper with Raised Rails on Roof  

Question:

The type of awning that's going to work best on your camper is one that will attach directly to the sidewall of the camper like the Thule Hideaway part # TH490011 for a 10' long x 8' wide awning or # TH490018 for a 8-1/2' long x 6-1/2' wide awning. This won't require any attachment or integration with the rails you have now on the roof of the camper and gives you a solid awning setup. There isn't a solution that would attach to the rails you have currently also.

I see what you mean. Sounds like your best option would be the crossbar mounted Yakima SlimShady part # Y36VR which can attach to the 1 inch square crossbars on the roof of your camper easily. The awning will be 6.5 feet by 6.5 feet. I attached a review and install video for this for you to check out as well.
