I have found the clip!! This clip fits in the awning rail and clamps through the tarp. I haven't finished making my tent poles, but it worked great so far for my shade fabric. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0026T0QHK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ------------- 2005 Dodge Durango 4.7 V8 OLD Tow Vehicle 2004 Honda Odyssey 2015 RP179 "73b" OLD 2005 Viking Saga 2480ST popup |

We have a model 179 with the R-Dome. Has anyone used a pop-up awning? ------------- Gary and Jill Winters Bella Golden Retriever 2014 Silverado 1500 2015 R-Pod 179 -(SOLD)

I order the clips and think I have a good plan in process, will try first with a 12x8 tarp before I buy a 12 x 8 rain awning The clips are great I hope they work, thinking of flexing a long fiberglass pole for the front Mack, Paula, et.al. 182-G and we love it ------------- The McCarty's & a 182G |

These clips look easier to use than sewing kedar awning rope to the material. Do you just slide them into the rail or did you clamp them over a rope? ------------- Bay Area Crew 2013 178 Beach Pod F-150 SuperCrew ...sempre in viaggio sul mare... |

The clips have 5 small lugs that punch through the tarp. The tarp had a rope already sewn into that edge so it was about as easy as it gets. ------------- 2005 Dodge Durango 4.7 V8 OLD Tow Vehicle 2004 Honda Odyssey 2015 RP179 "73b" OLD 2005 Viking Saga 2480ST popup |
