I had forgotten briefly that I was looking for somethingjust like this. Thank you for renewing the thread. And for the great find initially.

I've been thinking about it all day, and I just ordered one from busdepot. Again, thanks for the tip!

I'm going camping this weekend, i'll try to get some photos of the quick release connection for the awning.

I just called Bus Depo and they told me that the EZY-Awning is out of stock and they are not able to get any from the supplier. They are trying to go directly to the manufacture but no luck at this time.

Please let me know if anyone has found another source.

Have any tried these on Econoline 4x4 got one today http://www.sportzbynapier.com/product.html?product_num=46

I am looking at this:

Do you get the pinzgauer to

Nooo only the tent


But plenty Pinz around our part of the world...

My first thought was height issues (actually it was "Do you get the pinzgauer too?") but actually if that front rolled flap was attached as sort of an awning over the side doors of the van, that could be a really awesome setup.

Ah yes height is an issue for you 4x4 guys, but me with my "low" 2WD rig I can fit the rear doors of the van inside the first section of the tent. this adds a good 4 meters of extra living space...

That being said I haven't got the tent yet

Here's some photos of how the Bus Depot's Ezy-Awning attaches to my Eurovan and a couple of the repairs I've had to do. Hope these help with anyone's decision making. -JM

Quick-release clips. There's three total, permanently installed.


Cordura strap from inside pop top- the strap is locked down under the tent's anchor beam.


Close up of the cordura strap.


quick release clips- there's 3 sets that attach awning to van. You can see the corner pocket of the awning gets a lot of stress from the tent poles hence the pulled out stitches.


The flap from the awning covers these clips, i pulled it back for the photo.


There is some play in the awning when it's windy since it just hangs from these three clips. It hasn't done any damage to the paint though.


The 3 clips stay under pop top when it's lowered. They don't get in the way or cause any sort of problem.


Heavy duty suction cups that mount to any flat surface. haven't actually used them yet. Usually the set up comes with either suction cups or the quick release clips but mine showed up with both.


Some of the stitching i've replaced (white) and some more i'm about to replace (grey thread).
