I have a Solera power awning V000330573. I would like to add the LED light strip to the roller tube. I will need the new head with slip ring LC334785. What light kit would i need?

Expert Reply:
Since your Solera awning didn't come with the roller tube pre-built to accommodate a light strip, the best thing for your application is to go with the Vista Light LED Kit # LC25VR. This installs where the awning attaches and will actually work out better than what you're wanting to do because it means you can use the light even when your awning is rolled up.
With your current setup you would need to get a different roller tube, get the Solera Power Awning Idler Head w/ LED Upgrade # LC334785, and route power up through the awning arm to make everything work.
