I just bought a 2017 RP 179. The oem Thule awning got ripped off by a storm so the only thing remaining is the Keder rail which is 9’6” long. Do I have to buy a Thule awning only? If so, what size? Where do I buy it? I would rather buy a cheaper awning if possible. Not sure how to proceed.

I did not know the 2017 RP179 (which is what we have) was reinforced for the OEM awning. Someone must have added it after the fact.

Buying Keder tape makes it easy to fabricate your own awning.
