  • Thule Awning FIt for Forest River Travel Trailer
    Yes. I believe it is the Thule HideAway Awning like # TH490008 being used. However you will want the direct mount version which is part number # TH490018 to add it aftermarket to a trailer. This will include the correct mounting brackets you will need.

  • Which Thule Hideaway Awning Fits Wall of Ford Transit
    The correct Thule Hideaway Awning for a wall mount application would be the part # TH490011 as the part # TH490008 was designed to attach to the crossbars of a roof rack. Both of these come with all needed brackets for their applications.

  • Thule Awning for 2020 Ford F-150 With Thule Roof Rack Mounted On Truck Cap
    Hi John; since you have a Thule roof rack on your 2020 F-150 truck cap you can use the following: -Thule HideAway Awning - Roof Rack Mount - Waterproof - 6' 6" Long x 8' 6" Wide # TH490008 -Thule HideAway Awning - Roof Rack Mount - Waterproof - 8' Long x 10' Wide # TH490010 The only requirement will be the minimum crossbar spread of 36" for both so you can choose whichever size you would prefer for your setup.

  • Which Thule HideAway Awning Can Fit 2021 Forest River E-Pro 12RK
    Looks like the awnings that normally install on the 2021 Forest River epro12rk attach directly to the side wall of the camper like with the # TH490011. The # TH490008 instead needs a roof rack to install which your camper would not have.

  • Adding An Awning To A 1995 Toyota Granvia
    Hello Devin, we do have a few options for you. The first thing that comes to mind is to just do a direct mount awning. The Thule HideAway Awning # TH490018 is a great direct mount option. You just need to have 8.5" of open space on the side of the van. If you prefer a roof mounted option, the best bet would be to install roof tracks like the Rhino-Rack RTC-Style Roof Rack Tracks # RTC14. You can then use the Track Mount RLTF Legs # RLTF along with some Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars...

  • Will Thule HideAway Awning For Roof Rack Work on Trailer With Roof Rack
    Hey Jeff, So long as your crossbars are spread out a minimum of 36 inches then I can't see any reason why your trailer wouldn't be able to use the roof rack mounted Thule HideAway Awning # TH490008. The legs do have a max height of 6 feet, 6 inches, so it's going to slope down, but there will still be plenty of room hang out in the shade.

  • Is There An Awning for Thule Square Bar Crossbars
    The Thule HideAway Awning part # TH490008 is what I recommend for the Thule Square Bar Crossbars. The only other options would require upgrading the roof rack as they require an integrated channel inside the crossbar. The Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awning part # RR32133 could be used if you also purchased the Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform Rack part # RR42114BF but these are your options.

  • Adding Mosquito Netting or Walls to Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awning
    For the Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awning, # RR32132 that you currently have, there is the Extension Piece for Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awning, # RR32112. This can be mounted to the side or front to provide either additional roof space or dropped at an angle for a shade/wind break. But an enclosure addition is not an available option available for the Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awning, # RR32132. For the arrangement you are looking for, in a mosquito netting, we have the Thule Overcast Awning, #...

  • What is Difference Between Thule Hideaway Awnings Roof Rack Mount and Wall Mount
    The Thule Hideaway that mounts to roof racks part # TH490008 is designed to attach to a set of crossbars and comes with hardware to do so whereas the Thule Hideaway wall mount # TH490011 comes with hardware to attach to the side of a wall. So the mounting hardware is the key difference.

  • Will the Thule HideAway Work With a Prime Design Roof Rack On a 2018 Ford Transit T150
    I do have an option for you but I don't really see a way for you to use the Thule HideAway Awning part # TH490008 with the Prime Design Roof Rack AR-2100-AR2108 on your 2018 Ford Transit T150 due to the side rails being in the way. If you were to somehow remove the side rails then the Roof Rack Adapters for Thule HideAway Awnings part # TH490001 would most likely be able to mount to the crossbars but not with the side rails in place. If you can't remove the side rails on the Prime Design...

  • Can I Use Thule HideAway Mounting Brackets With Other Awnings?
    The Roof Rack Adapters for Thule HideAway Awnings # TH490001 are not designed to be used with other awnings other than Thule HideAway Awning # TH490010 or # TH490008. This is because the mounting brackets are designed to fit into sliding channels built into the awning itself. These channels are spaced 2-3/8" apart on center and use Thule T-bolts # 853-5715 which have an M8 stud. Thule refers to their mounting channel system as "exclusively designed" so it is unlikely that other awning...

  • Mounting Thule HideAway Awning To Thule AeroBlade Crossbars.
    You will need to get this roof rack adapter # TH490001 for your Thule HideAway Awning # TH490010 or # TH490008. These adapters will allow you to clamp them around your Thule Aeroblade Edge Crossbars or mount via T-Track. Make sure that your crossbar spread is at least 36 inches apart. This system will lock your awning to your roof so you don't have to worry about it running off when you're not around.

  • Recommended RV Awning For A 2018 Forest River Flagstaff E-Pro E12RK
    If your roof rack has crossbars that fit the following requirements you can easily attach either the # 8'-6" # TH490008 or 10' # TH490010 Thule HideAway roof rack mounted awnings: Minimum crossbar spread of 36" Maximum crossbar width of 3-1/2" wide Crossbar height ranging from 11/16" up to 1-3/8" tall If your crossbars fall outside of these ranges the then could go with a wall mount option like the # TH490011 instead. This would require drilling into the walls in order to mount so you'll...

  • Will Thule HideAway Awning For Roof Rack Work on 2023 Ram ProMaster With Adapters
    Hello Jack, The roof rack mounted Thule HideAway Awning # TH490008 will not work on your 2023 Ram ProMaster 1500 with adapters as it is for racks only. But we do have a different awning of the same size awning that will work, it just needs to have different adapters. What you can use is the Thule HideAway Awning - Direct Mount # TH490018 with the Thule HideAway Awning Adapter for Dodge ProMaster Cargo Van # TH308960.

  • Correct T-Bolts for Thule HideAway Awning To Mount On Roof Rack
    In order to use the Thule HideAway Awning - Roof Rack Mount part # TH490008 with roof rack crossbars you'll need the Roof Rack Adapters for Thule HideAway Awnings part # TH490001. This is a kit that comes with the brackets you need to attach the t-bolts but the t-bolts aren't sold separately.

  • Roof Mounted Awning for a 2015 Subaru Forester with Subaru Roof Rack Crossbars
    I have awning recommendations for you but the Batwing Awning # RR33200 is not a fit for the Subaru E361SSG000 crossbars. There isn't an adapter for it either. But as long as you can get your crossbars spaced 36 inches apart on center you can use the 8-1/2 foot Thule awning # TH490008 or the 10 foot model # TH490010. You would just need 1 set of adapters # TH490001.

  • Awning Needed to Fit OEM Roof Rack on Subaru Baja
    All of the Rhino-Rack Awnings, like the Batwing Awning # RR33100 you referenced, require that the roof rack has T-Slots to install. I'm not sure what crossbars came on a Subaru Baja but I'm pretty sure that they didn't have the newer style T-Slot so if you are wanting to utilize your current roof rack you need to go with the Thule HideAway Awning # TH490008 with the Adapter Kit # TH490001 as it is the only option that clamps around the roof rack crossbars. Just note that the crossbar spread...

  • Can The Thule Or Yakima Vehicle Awnings Be Mounted To The Roof Rack Of A Winnebago Revel
    With how the stock rack of the Winnebago Revel is you wouldn't be able to use the clamp-on installation methods for the Yakima SlimShady Awning # Y36VR or Thule HideAway Awning # TH490008. You would have to custom fabricate some brackets to either bolt through the rails of the rack or clamp to them. Both awning do have wall mount brackets that you could get separately to help mount to whatever you come up with for the rails (Yakima # Y84AR and Thule # TH308960).

  • Version of Thule Hideaway that Can Attach to 2012 Ford E-250

  • Recommended Awning for 2021 Toyota 4Runner with Factory Cross Bars
    For an awning that has options of side panels, I recommend the Thule HideAway Awning, # TH490008. With this option you can add the Sun Blocker G2 Side Panel for Thule 8-1/2' HideAway Awning, # TH307399 or the Rain Blocker, # TH307400. Or even the Medium QuickFit Tent for Thule HideAway Awnings - 8-1/2' Long Item # TH307056. For factory rails on your 2021 Toyota 4Runner, you will need the Roof Rack Adapters for Thule HideAway Awnings, # TH490001. This will not be as easy of an on/off attachment...
