Ours, done a few years ago. Fairly simple job if you can use a tape measure and sewing machine.



Ours was a Sunncamp Swift 260, still available HERE, very light and easy to put up. Poled not air, about 2/3 the weight of an air   at 6.8kg.
I can give detailed intructions on how to modify it so that it zips on to the standard zip of the folding camper. No chance of it parting company unlike useing figure of 8 channels.
As it was so light, we rarely took it off, just removed the pole, chucked it over the roof and folded up the camper as normal





Could you tell me how to modify this please 🙏

Good morning everyone. Please could someone advise me I have purchased a Penine Clubman trailer tent I believe it's a 1980s model. There is no awning with it would a Penine Pullman awning fit please or any advice on what to purchase the canvas has a zip attachment. The reason is I am desperate for an awning as I have 2 Romanian rescue dogs and one is always looking to escape as soon as a door is open.
My kindnest and best regards

I think its like using any zip.The slider will be on your cabin half of the zip and the one you buy will have the insert pin on its half.
Baring in mind i dont have a caravan or a trailer tent i'm just assuming thats how it works.
If i am wrong i apologize.

Clubman and Pullman are different sizes.

XVI yes?

As well is two words!
How does a sage know everything about everything? or does he? or does he just think he does?
Remember, if you buy something you bought it, not brought it.
