Recommended Replacement 17' Wide Power Awning and All Parts Needed to Install it  

Updated 05/25/2026 | Published 05/21/2026

Question:

I want to replace my complete manual awning assembly with a powered assembly and Im getting confused on what parts I need. The arms have some dings in them and retracting the assembly for travel can be tricky. I often have to climb on the roof to get the arms in their correct position and Im 71. So I need to replace everything. My current awning is 17foot wide center of arm to center of arm. Im interested in the following item I think but dont know what else I need. I do have an installer in mind but I would like an idea of all the parts I need. Replacement Roller and Fabric Kit for 17' Solera XL Power RV Awnings - Black Fade Part Number: LCV000334961

Hey Patricia, welcome back! The Replacement Roller and Fabric Kit for 17' Solera XL Power RV Awnings - Black Fade item # LCV000334961 comes with a heavy-duty roller tube, pre-attached awning fabric, and a weather guard. You'll also need the Support Arms for Solera 12V XL Power RV Awnings item # LC362243 in black or item # LC362241 in white. These include the XL rated arms, electrical components, and screws.

Depending on what kind of awning you already have you may not need two of the Solera Awning Rail Extrusion item # LC715217 in black or item # LC715216 in white. These 8' long rails hold the awning fabric to the side of your RV but you may be able to reuse the ones currently installed.

The The Replacement Roller and Fabric Kit for 17' Solera XL Power RV Awnings - Black Fade item # LCV000334961 is 17' wide overall. It has a 16.1' wide fabric and the awning will extend out 9-1/2' from the side of your Winnebago. There is one measurement I highly recommend you taking. The arms with this awning are 78" tall. You'll want to make sure you have that much clearance available from the top of your RV where they'll mount to the bottom.

Do you know what kind of manual awning you currently have on your motorhome?
