I'm afraid I don't. I'm not a "picture taking" person.

However if you look in my gallery, there's a picture there of my current awning which is very similar and that will give you a bit of a steer.........The caravan is that on which this Trio awning was used so the size is comparable.

You'd be very welcome to come a play around with it in my back garden.

If you have a handbook, you should be able to find the awning size in the specs page. Failing that, a call to the manfacturer with the caravan's VIN number should get you the size.

Cheers!

Vic

OK. Thanks for letting me know.

Getting bits and pieces for your caravan is a never ending task and always enjoyable.

Browsing in the big caravan places like White Arches in Rushden, Northants is always sure to prise a few quid away from you.

I never come away from these places without buying something even if it's only toilet fluid on special offer and I've been caravanning for 30 years!!!!!!!!!!

Best wishes,

Vic
