Im looking for someone who has actually mounted a small (10 foot?) manual awning on their rpod. I believe I saw an rpod drive by that used a Yakima type roof rack system, had the bars extend over the edge of the roof several inches & mounted some type of support across those arms to attach a traditional roll out awning. Anyone out there have any experience doing this? Jack rpod 171

I do not have experience with any of that, but plenty of people attach an awning to the keder rail, and then put a couple tarp poles to hold up the front edge. ------------- 2017.5 Rp-172 2020 R-pod 195 2015 Frontier sv 4.0L 6cyl I'll be rpodding |

We made an awning like mjlrpod mentioned. We used an 8x132 tarp, some keder rail tape sewed to the edge and 3 tent poles. It works great. Vann https://postimg.cc/pp7drpsp">  ------------- Vann & Laura 2015 RPod 179 https://postimg.cc/0zwKrfB9">
