Mounting Tepui Awning to Toyota Sienna
Question:
Hello, I am wondering if this set-up Item # 8880737 and # 8880736 will work to mount a Tepui Overcast awning to the roof rack crossbars on my 2012 Toyota Sienna XLE Or, if there is a better way of accomplishing this. Thanks!

Expert Reply:
Since you have a roof rack with no T-Slots you won't be able to use the Tepui Overcast, but you can get a clamp on awning like the Yakima SlimShady # Y96VR! I've used these in the past and did the review on it as well! It works really well and simply clamps around any crossbar. Just make sure that your crossbar spread is at least 27 inches. Using the brackets you were looking at # 8880737 and # 8880736 wont work with anything other than the SlimShady. If you really wanted to get the Tepui Awning, we have a roof rack with tracks for your 2012 Toyota Sienna, but you will have to remove your current rack.
Check out my review video to see how it installs and works!
