Does anyone know is it possible to adapt a left-hand drive awning for use on a right-hand drive vw campervan? Does the sliding door of the van cause a problem?

I can't imagine there would be a problem as the opening extends across one side. Our door opens a bit wider than the tunnel bit but it's fine really. You open the door carefully that's all. We have 3 awnings (don't ask!) and they are all similar. The Kyham has one large opening and one of the others opens either or both sides at once.

Every tunnel awning Ive seen is suitable for both left & right hand doors, what sort do you have?
