[QUOTE="Graham L, post: 629876, member: 3481"] When you say 'figure of 8 strip' do you actually mean awning rail?, figure of 8 is used to fasten an awning to the gutter on the van. We fitted an awning rail to the fibreglass on the hightop and we used a rail that came with adhesive on the back and small self tappers and its stayed on so far, if you can get to the back of the fibreglass you would need to use small countersink nuts and bolts as you need the awning to slide smoothly down the channel without catching the heads of the bolts and large penny washers on the inside. You can just see the awning rail above the sliding door [ATTACH type="full"]1416[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
