Question:

I just received this item today and noticed that the awing bracket is not the same as shown. Instead I have the brackets that are in the Slide Topper Access Kit. This is a problem for me because I want the brackets to match with I already have on the Trailer.

The Solera RV Slide-Out Awnings like part # LCV000168112 come with different brackets now, the Solera Slide Topper Access Kit part # LC795354 that you mentioned. The reason for this is because trailer manufactures have now started to install a prep kit from the factory that allows you to slide the slide topper bracket onto the trailer without drilling but you can still install the kit on a trailer without the prep kit as well by drilling. If you prefer the old style bracket, we still have these part # LC2724412 for black or part # LC2724411 for white.
