Hi Fowey, I've not long got my hands on a Cabanon from Ebay either. Most of the rubbers are intact and in good condition on mine, and like Piglet says, I don't think it matters on whether any replacements are manufacturer's originals or not as long as they are the right size. Lots of places seem to have generic rubbers that will suit awnings or tents, so I guess its a matter of finding somewhere local that will suit you.

I'm quite fortunate that I have a Cabanon dealer 20mins drive away near Chester, so what rubbers I needed to replace, I got from there.

Congratulations on your bargain buy Fowey  A brilliant tent

Take one of your perished rubbers with you to a camping shop to ensure you get the same size if you intend to fit them by unpicking & re-sewing the tape which holds them to the tent. However, you will have a white plastic ring attached to the tape on each pegging point, and you can just get longer rubbers & loop them through the rings if you don't fancy a sewing job.
