We can recommend items for a (our shortest width) 10' width awning or larger widths, but there really isn't a specific awning for the 2016 R-Pod 178. The shape of the R-Pod campers make it slightly more challenging for adding an awning but it can be done on some models. If your camper has room to support a 10' awning, I suggest the following items:
To add the 10' Awning # LCV000211447 you will need:
- Solera Manual Pull Style Awning Drive Head # LC271181
- Solera Manual Pull Style Awning Idler Head # LC272397
- Solera Manual Awning Pull Strap # LC292794
- Solera Awning Rail Extrusion, # LC715217 that is 8' long so you will need 2 and then cut to fit.
