We bought a 2019 Forest River R Pod in Sept. 2022 with no awning because the previous said it was broken and he threw it away. I called to cancel an awning that was too short on Nov. 18, 2022 and ordered the 9' 10" awning and Alyssa told me we may not get it until next summer. I received an email over a week later that our awning was shipped, and we received it Dec. 9, 2022. It was very easy to install since the camper already had the Thule bracket on the camper. The weather also cooperated with installing it! These awnings are made in England and Alyssa told me the Thule is having difficulty getting orders done and shipped. I don't know what kind of strings e-trailer pulled but I was very happy we got it in a very timely manner. Very pleased with the quality and excellent service!



by:

Great product with good mounting system. Options on how the supports get anchored. Clean slim profile when closed up.



by:

The product is great, but the delivery was not….they dropped it in the middle of our driveway during the day. It could have easily been stolen. We have a covered front porch which would have made the package less visible.



by:

We've had this awning for over a year now and completely satisfied.

I've been on the hunt for this awning for over a year as its been out of stock. There are other options out there for the Sprinter van but this one was the best choice for my rack. You do need to purchase the mounting brackets separately, which come with different options for attaching to crossbars amd roof rails. I had some roof rail pucks laying around that I used to attach the brackets too.
This is very versatile and can be set up with the legs on the ground or with the Thule optional brackets(Purchase
separately) that attach the legs to the van..this is great if setting up on a hard surface or if you need to keep your dog on a lead and not get tangled up.the only tricky part for me is that my van is tall so once I get the awning out about 2 ft, I have to hop in the van and get the legs out- no biggie.this is very nicely made and easy to set up take down. Lots of optinal accessories as well



by:

Replaced the Carefree awning on our 2019 Travato with this product. Like the sleeker look of the Thule awning when closed. 4 stars was only because of a missing arm cover (refer to photos). The legs locking mechanism is kinda squirrelly so hoping there’s a fix to tighten those.



by:

I will just email this review to you here. So far the Thule roof mount awning appears to be a 5-Star product.

Just now have it installed. This awning is very nice. It mounts tight to the roof with a foam rubber gasket to eliminate any potential rattles while driving or rain leaking in under the awning when in use. It has a low profile to minimize wind resistance while driving. The adapter kit which secures the Awning to the roof of the ProMaster Van is excellent quality and attaches quickly and securely. However, placing the awning into the adapter brackets is not as simple as the directions indicate. Once you figure out the proper procedure required(which is a bit different than the directions) it all went together nicely.

Here are a couple of pictures. from this morning's installation. Not a very nice day here so the pics are marginal.

Hopefully you received the return awning ok.

Thanks for you good service,



by:

Ordering from etrailer has always been effortless. Prices are on point and free shipping doesn't hurt either. The awning went on in an hour using the kit that I also purchased from etrailer. Will return to their site for the other items I will need for my build.



by:

I'm extremely disappointed in customer service at Etrailer. I called regarding an issue with the telescoping hand crank getting stuck in the hole when pulling out or retracting the awning. I was told by Shawnee in customer service to call the manufacture, Thule.



by:

So I ordered the Thule hideaway and received the Thule omnistor. Luckily it fit the same adapters and everything. I think the legs are maybe different between the two and some accessories might not fit but it’s really hard to tell. Wish they would have advertised the product that they shipped when spending $XXXX.



by:

I was going to purchase an ARB awning until I saw the Thule. Perfect size for my 2020 Ford Transit Connect with crank out awning instead of the ARB's hand unroll and roll back up to store. Enclosed casing instead of a zippered bag as well as a quality build overall. The added cost for a quality product was well worth it.



by:

After a ton of research I chose the Hideaway roof rack mount awning for my Ford Transit van conversion project. The awning was easy to mount, (did so in about 1 hour with help of my wife). I mounted my roof rack mounting brackets upside down onto my home-made roof rack and it fits beautifully.



by:

For our application the awning is performing well.



by:

Product was exactly as described and arrived a day earlier than scheduled! Product is perfectly fine and functions exactly as expected. However after installing and trying it out, I wish I had spent a bit extra for a motorized awning. I was able to instal by myself as a 5’3” lady, but it was not easy to lift up on top of my 9’ van by myself. Know that you should most definitely have a second or third person to assist in installation and lifting, depending on your abilities. I often camp solo and can foresee setting up awning by myself may also pose some challenges, but is not impossible to do alone. Overall, great product, great service, and a happy addition to my Promaster DIY van build. Looking forward to having the extra shaded living space right outside my door.

Excellent customer service! Great job everyone at etrailer!

  • Can Thule HideAway Awning Fit 2021 R-Pod 171
    Yes the Thule HideAway Awning - Wall Mount # TH490011 can be installed on the sidewall of your 2021 R-Pod 171 that you mentioned. It would attach to the wall of the camper with included hardware.

  • Could Thule Hideaway Awning Fit on 2016 R-Pod 179
    The Thule HideAway Awning - Wall Mount # TH490011 that you referenced was designed to attach to a van wall and we've had customers attach it to the side of trailer walls in the past and it worked well for them. Now whether your wall is strong enough to handle the weight of the awning that's hard to say for sure. I am sure there would be a way to reinforce it. If the walls have interior and exterior plywood panels like you mentioned that would certainly be strong enough. In this style of...

  • How To Install the Thule HideAway Awning On a Trailer
    The Thule HideAway Awning part # TH490011 offers direct mount installation. Therefore, you'd need to attach the brackets directly to the wall of the trailer. If you have existing brackets, these would need to be removed. I have attached for you below a photo that will help you get a better idea of what all is involved for installation.

  • Availability for Instructions to Install Thule HideAway Awning on a 2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
    Yes! All of this is actually in the linked instructions for the Thule HideAway Roll Out Awning # TH490011 on this page. Since this is a universal fit the instructions are specifically tailored to a 2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 but they are detailed enough for the installation.

  • How To Determine The Correct Location For Thule HideAway Awning Mounting Brackets
    To install the Thule HideAway Awning # TH490011 to your Forest River R-POD 178 you are correct that you will need to mount the brackets to a support stud. The locations of the support studs can be provided by the manufacturer of your R-POD, and you will want to be careful to avoid any electrical or gas lines when drilling the holes for the brackets. I included the installation instructions of the Thule HideAway # TH490011 for you to take a look at.

  • Will Thule Hideaway Awning Fit Thule 5200 Rails on 2019 Forest River R Pod 1900
    The bracket you have from your older Thule awning isn't compatible with any current Thule awnings but the good news is that the Thule HideAway Awning # TH490011 comes with new brackets that you'd use to install it. They are much smaller as well.

  • Thule HideAway Awning For 2021 Ford Transit 250 With Medium Height Roof

  • Brackets Included With The Thule HideAway Awning
    The Thule HideAway Awning - Wall Mount - Waterproof - 80 sqft Item # TH490011 comes with brackets to mount directly to the side wall of your 2020 Sprinter Van. It won't come with brackets to connect to a roof rack so that is probably the conflicting info you've been seeing. I have attached the mounting instruction page from the manual to help with installation.

  • Recommended RV Awning For A Forest River R-Pod 182G
    The Thule HideAway Awning # TH490011 you were looking at would be a great option, we actually have a review from another R-Pod owner that I've attached below that mounted this awning to their trailer and loved it. The mounting brackets included in your kit will get bolted/riveted to wall of your trailer and the legs can either be mounted to the other wall brackets for tension or staked to the ground.

  • How to Remove the Thule HideAway Awning for Storage
    You will be able to easily remove the Thule HideAway Awning # TH490011 from the mounting brackets that come with the direct mounting kit, but it should be noted that this awning only sticks out 3-1/2" from the side of your R-Pod trailer. I've attached a picture that shows in the instructions for the HideAway and how it mounts to the mounting plates that attach to your trailer, but it does mount and come off fairly easily.

  • Mounting Thule HideAway Awning On Northstar Popup
    I talked with a Tech Rep at Thule to verify, and yes they think your plan for attaching is good. The main thing to consider is that it has enough structural integrity, if is at least as strong and solid as the wall this will be sufficient to mount the Thule HideAway Awning, # TH490011. The SKA252 that you ask about from the instructions is identifying a type of sealant, the Sika brand/Sikaflex. They suggest using a natural silicon type.

  • Direct Bolt-On Awning That Fits A 2016 Forest River R-Pod 182G Travel Trailer
    Yes, the Thule Hideaway Awning # TH490011 is a direct bolt on awning that will mount directly to the side of your 2016 Forest River R-Pod Travel Trailer. This awning measures in at 9' 10" Long, 8' Wide, includes all the needed hardware for installation, and will work great for your Forest River R-Pod trailer.

    For a 2016 R-Pod 180 the Thule Hideaway part # TH490011 would be a great bolt on fit. It will mount directly to the side of your camper and since it's smaller at 9 foot 10 inches it's a good size for your R-Pod.

  • How Far do Legs Extend of Thule HideAway Awning and How Far Does it Stick Out When Retracted
    I reached out to the manufacturer, Thule, who told me the legs of the Thule HideAway Awning - Direct Mount # TH490011 extend 8 feet. These legs do fold up into the awning so you do not have to remove them every time you use the awning, which makes it easy to use. I have added a link to a video review which shows this occurring at about the 4:30 mark. The video review is for the roof rack mounted HideAway awning but the legs fold into the awning on the direct-mount as well. As far as how...

  • Awning Recommendation for Rear of Covered Utility Trailer That is 8 ft Wide
    For what you are looking for the best option would be the Thule Hideaway Awning Wall Mount part # TH490011. This is 8 foot wide, has legs that would come down to the sides of the awning once extended and since it's wall mounted it would be the best option for your application above the rear door. I wouldn't necessarily call it inexpensive but most RV style awnings are on the higher end of pricing.

  • Is There Replacement Fabric Available for Thule Omnistor 5003 Awning on 2010 Roadtrek 210 Popular
    I may have a solution for you, but according to my contact over at Thule, the replacement fabric on the Omnistor awnings are not replaceable so the only solution available would be to replace the entire awning. From looking at some photos of the 2010 Roadtrek 210 Popular, it looks like the Thule HideAway Awning - Wall Mount - Waterproof - 80 sq ft # TH490011 would be a good replacement and provides you with 80 sq/ft of shade.

  • Will the Thule HideAway Awning Work On a Pleasure-Way Tofino On Ram ProMaster Chassis
    In order to mount the Thule HideAway Awning part # TH490011 on a Ram ProMaster you will need to use the Thule HideAway Awning Adapter part # TH308960. The adapter kit has brackets which conform to the shape of the roof. Therefore, if the conversion package like the Pleasure-Way Tofino uses the factory roof then it should work but keep in mind installation will not be as straight forward so some modifications may be needed. That said, after looking over the conversion it does appear to be...

  • Can Thule Hideaway Direct Mount Awning Attach to Side Wall of RV
    The fit for the Thule Hideaway awnings part # TH490018 and # TH490011 is still the same and can mount to the side of your RV. These are a wall mount/direct mount which means it easily can attach to the outside side wall of your RV without any issue. Obviously you are going to have to drill through the wall which is a permanent modification but it will still work just fine going that route.

  • Which Thule Hideaway Awning for 2003 VW Eurovan with Lift Top Roof
    The best solution to mount a Thule Hideaway Awning # TH490011 would be to wall mount, since it's not going to require adding a compatible roof rack. You could mount this awning on the lift roof using the Thule HideAway Awning Adapter for VW Van with Lift Roof # TH307887 you were looking at, as well; so this would be an alternative solution to the wall, which I still think might be the best solution for your 2003 Eurovan.
