Slide out cover

We have a slide cover that came with our used 179. I have no idea what the brand is or what it cost, but it is installed manually each time  you set up. It is not hard to install and uses the keder rail that comes stock on the slide. There are several bungee cords that keep it tight. Ours seems to be a heavy canvas type of material and seems to work well.

Wall below the flange.

I don't remember if I needed the long or short brackets because I don't remember the flange height; I followed the recommendations on Carefree's website:

Short Bracket - Flange heights 0" - 3.25" Tall Bracket - Flange heights 3.26" - 5.25"

It's a pretty quick install. The screws for the brackets are all self-drilling. The hardest and most time-consuming part was feeding the fabric into the keder rail: I spread the ends of the rail a little to help prevent snagging.

We got this one from this seller for our 179:

You have to buy the brackets separately, which adds another $70. When we bought ours over a year ago, it came with the brackets, but apparently no more.

The slide-out on the 179 measures 109-1/2" flange edge to flange edge, a smidge more if the corner covers are counted, or about 110" That means I would need either a 9' or 9.5' awning, which are currently listed on eTrailer for $349.95.
