Good day all. 
I have a 2018 r-pod 189 with the R-dome set up, but I'd like to install the Thule 5200 awning. Does anyone know if this is as simple as mounting the awning brackets or does the trailer have to have factory support?

thank you.

That awning does need support in the walls, and I don't recall what model year they started adding the support. 2018 does not stand out in my memory.
