Doesn’t your wind out awning have a channel to take the drive away awning strip?We have a thule sun awning fitted to our van but want to use a drive away awning to expand our space as well, does anyone else use a drive away awning as well as the thule awning or other wind out awning if so what do you use
yes just seeing what awnings people use and what they would recommendDoesn’t your wind out awning have a channel to take the drive away awning strip?
Hi Ricardo I have been looking at the Vango Kela it would be ideal for us only question I have is if it rains how do you stop it coming through gap between the van and Thule awning so you can have the door open and go between the 2 without getting wet?Hi @Bynxy...we mainly use a Thule sun awning for short trips and a Vango Kela driveway awning for longer trips and sometimes use them both together which gives a great space....wind out the Thule to required depth and then slot the driveway onto the Thule.....perfect when you know the weather is going to be good!
They do sell an extortionately expensive “kit” to prevent water coming through the gap.
Much better price! Mine is a Fiamma and I must admit that I did swear at the price I was charged! And, it is just a crud-catcher!Although, saying that I have just had a look and found this.

The genuine Fiamma kit is around the £70 mark, which is ridiculous for a piece of stick on rubber.
'Lagging' it seems to work really well..may get the odd drip where the figure of eight channel sections abutt each other but no issues really...at a fraction of the cost.Hi Ricardo I have been looking at the Vango Kela it would be ideal for us only question I have is if it rains how do you stop it coming through gap between the van and Thule awning so you can have the door open and go between the 2 without getting wet?

Its the Thule led strip light..yep like that idea what's the light you are using
Thanks! That's a pain but I'll find a solution! Thanks for your reply.Looks like you can’t as the part that would accept the kador is on the roll out part only whereas most other models it’s built into the case
