Perfect for tailgating, outdoor markets, and camping, the Rhino-Rack Sunseeker provides shade anywhere you take your vehicle. The awning mounts to your Rhino-Rack Pioneer platform or crossbars with top channels. It is supported by built-in telescoping poles that let a single person set it up and break it down in minutes. Made of ripstop, polycotton canvas that is resistant to UV rays, water, and mold, the awning rolls out from either side of your vehicle to provide you with 55 sq ft of shade. With different awning extensions (sold separately), you can expand the shade coverage or even create a windbreaker. The Sunseeker's 50+ UPF protection has earned it an official endorsement by Cancer Council Australia.
The Sunseeker easily unrolls from your vehicle's roof to provide 55 sq ft of shade. Just unzip the storage bag and roll out the canvas. Once the horizontal supports are exposed, extend them to the outer edges of the canvas and connect them to the front of the awning.
The telescoping support poles are built into the awning, which means you don't have to attach each pole separately during setup. Simply unclasp each pole from the built-in clips on the awning and drop them into position. After this, tighten the poles to the necessary height and use the spikes at the base of each pole to secure them to the ground. You can also adjust the poles to different heights to suit any type of terrain or assist with rainwater drainage.
The awning includes velcro tabs that wrap around the horizonal supports to bring the canvas to full tension.
Once the poles are set, find suitable locations near the awning to drive the included metal pegs into the ground. Then, to fully secure the Sunseeker, attach the hooked guy ropes to the frame and secure them to the ground with the pegs.
Strong and lightweight, the awning's ripstop, polycotton canvas is UV protected and water and mold resistant. The telescoping poles and frame are constructed of black anodized aluminum, so they won't rust or fade when exposed to the weather. When not in use, all the parts are stored inside the heavy-duty PVC storage cover.
The Sunseeker is mounted to your roof in one piece, so there is no need to remove anything from the storage cover during installation. The included mounting brackets attach to the channels on the Sunseeker's frame and then mount to your Pioneer platform or crossbars with top channels. The brackets can be used for either system using different mounting hole configurations. They simply install into the integrated channels and tighten down.
The Sunseeker has optional extensions to provide more shade and improve your outdoor experience. These extensions easily install to the awning by zipping to the outer edge or attaching to a horizonal support pole. And just like the Sunseeker, they use telescoping poles, guy ropes, and pegs to secure to the ground. They are made of durable, ripstop polycotton canvas which is UV protected and water and mold resistant.
The Sunseeker can be expanded with the 43 sq ft extension (RR32112 - sold separately), which attaches to the horizontal support pole on either side of the awning. With this extension, you can increase your overhead coverage or make a windbreaker or sidewall.
Using the 48 sq ft extension (RR31101 - sold separately), which easily zips to the front edge of the awning, you can either increase your coverage or form a windbreaker.

Canvas awning rolls out from either side of your vehicle to provide 55 sq ft of shade. Easy one-person setup with integrated drop-down poles. Bolts to your Rhino-Rack Pioneer platform or crossbars with top channels. Guy ropes and pegs included.We bought this awning because we did a trip across America in our 1999 Chevy Diesel Suburban last year and used a 10x10 awning off the side at night, while it worked and stayed together the whole trip- it was still a 1/2 hour set up time, and there was a gap between truck and tent at all times. (Not great for rain). We plan on going back to the areas we want to spend more time, and this will allow us to have our shade/rain protection and a 5 minute set up time! The following pictures are of what we used (old system) to the new Rhino Rack Sunseeker 55sq ft awning from etrailer.com set up in the driveway- new adventures are in the beautiful future!!! Thank you to the awesome staff at etrailer.com for the great price, ease of ordering and fast shipping!
Install was very easy and quick....deployment was equally quick and easy as well. I will eventually add the extra zip on side panel. I like it and recommend this awning. Thanks
I've only used the awning a couple of times, but it has been easy to deploy and appears well made. I think I'm going to be very happy with it.
Haven't attached awning yet but can't wait for the awesomeness! The box arrived as promised undamaged and ready to roll (literally!)
Review from a similar Sunseeker in Car Awning
Sunseeker awning is great, took 20 minutes to install on my ARE Shell with Yakima surf racks. Fits perfectly with the mounting hardware provided, sits snugly against the shell and below the level of the surf racks. Thanks!

Haven’t had a chance to use it but install was very easy. One tool and about 10 minutes.

Review from a similar Sunseeker in Car Awning
A little difficult for one person to set up. Once it is deployed it works perfectly and is pretty stable even in a very brisk wind.
