you need a special awning or an awning with two awing tapes sewn to it so that one is lower than the other and they overlap in the centre.

you can do it yourself if you are handy with a needle otherwise a local awning repair shop may be able to adapt an awning for you

hope this is of help

Hi

We have a Rapido Comfortmatic and we bought a new Harrison awning for it.  We bought the 725cm size and it fits fine.  We have not altered the awning in any way.  The only problem is in very heavy rain we get a bit of a drip where the awning rails meet - not enough of a problem for us to do anything about it.

Any awning in725cm size should fit ok.  Hope this helps

Jackie
