we have just bought new tent- Hi Gear Mojave 5 for the bargin price of £99 squids and was wondering if you could put an outwell kids room in place of the two berth inner, looks like it might be possible but im not sure if all the hangy bits will be in the right places etc etc
also if not possible any tips on how to kiddyfy a inner would be greatly apprieciated, my kids are 2 and 8.
thankx

I was wondering this too. The Mojave certainly has plenty of attatchment holes for toggles, and the corners are hook/rings, with the two centre ones snap locks.
I think the outwell kids room might be a bit bigger but that's better than a tight fit.
another thing i was wondering is whether the kids rooms all same size, or bigger smaller dependant on tent, think its the latter, which if so which one would be most likely to fit the Mojave 5??
also i was wondering canopy wise whether there is one to fit the tent, have seen vango one that kinda looks like it will but its the wrong colour and i'm all for the matching accessories me.
I have modified inners from one tent to use in a another one, that dont match up to the toggle points by adding elastic .
I could have sewn lengths of knicker elastic , like the inners have them on, tidily , but couldnt be bothered,just used bits of pole elastic shock cord and just tied them on, worked fine.
outwell kids rooms are all different sizes to match the outwell tents.
, find the tent that is nearest shape and size to yours, look to see where the 2 berth room fits in the outwell tent , IE left or right hand side , to see if it will be compatible with your tent.
In a tunnel style with side by side bedrooms, there will only be one curved side with multiple hanging points, to follow the contour of the outside of the tent, and a straight edge in the middle of the tent with a fixing only at the top and bottom .
the vango canopies usually come in a choice of greens, blues, and black

Good point about the diff Outwell types. I was talking about the Vermont L kids room, as it is the same side/rough shape as the smaller room in the Mojave5.
think i will have to give it a the Vermont L kids room a try as as RubyT says it looks very simillar in size and shape to the normal inner we have.
in respect to canopy side of it - the mojave is royal blue - i think tho it has not been put up yet and the one in Go Outdoors looked kinda purple( sun bleached???) so am looking for royal blue possible purply colour - canopy if poss. who makes royal blue canopies- hi gear have a kalahari and a zenobia but dunno whether these will work? just wish that they would bring one out for this model as it would really extent cooking/eating/living space. other than a canopy is there any other way to do this? OH said Gazebo, but ive been there got that chased the gazebo around campsite tshirt!
