Hi all, new to camping and after some advice. I have bought a ango 500xl tent and after our first outing we have decided an awning would give us more room. I am looking for advice on a side awning that would be compatible with the tent. Its a pre 2017 model without zips. Any help would be really appreciated. TIA

I have had a look at them but wasnt sure how it attaches as my tent doesnt have zips like the later models. At that price its worth a shot and not bothered about it not being green.

My understanding is that they don't zip in, rather they sit as flush as possible with the tent. The demo video on the site gives you a better idea of the set up. https://youtu.be/TeWSUEnDDcI

I like the sound of the multicolour set up. It's eclectic!
