Hi there

Well firstly - I'm missing going to my van, can't wait till the site opens again!!

I have an Omega Compass 400-2 (1990) and want to know which awning to get.

I want a full one, one that i can leave up, etc

I have measured it using the Dorema system and we THOUGHT it came up with a size 8

But just rung up a supplier and they are saying a size 810 (sports active??). Which when he had finished telling me off for swearing!!!! said equated to a size 7 in comaprison.

Help please. I really want to order one off fleabay....as its a good price.

Hi. According to what's normally recognised as the "bible" for awning sizes (see HERE) the size you appear to need is 832 cms. This would seem to correspond to a Doreema Size 8. I don't know if you've checked the website, but the company itself seems to have some reasonable offers on previous years' models.
