Hi

Can anyone help, i have seen a few posts about alternative awnings for the crusader, and i am keeping my eye open for something quicker to put up for a weekend camp.I have just seen a Kampa fiesta 270 for sale does anyone know if this will fit my crusader, like the idea of putting an annex on?

 

thanks

Sian

Hi there,     Try a search on past posts for "porch awnings" loads of information and photos, a well talked about subject . We use a lightweight driveaway porch awning on our cruiser and attach it using figure 8 strips .It,s  much quicker and lighter than the main awning,

   Hope this helps GCB

I have a 2004 Crusader and the 350 doesn't fit it. The roof poles are in the wrong place to fit in the holes in the FC frame.

We also had a 1998 Cruiser before and the 270 didn't fit that for the same reason.

So I don't think the 270 will fit the Crusader, but haven't tried that combination specifically.

Try T.V.S they may be able to make one for your crusader a t a very good price,without you trying to make something work. Give them a ring and see what they can do.

Doubt if TVS will be able to make it at a good price.

XVI yes?

Thank you all, hadn't realised there were so many past posts, had tried Conway crusader but hadnt come up with much. Helps to know where to look    17    Having read a few, think i will aim for a single pole style, and get the sewing machine out, if I can source the correct zip.

Thanks you all for your help,

Sian

I used Brian Park, very friendly and helpful. Zip I ordered only cost £26 and it worked. I got an Outdoor Revolution Spacelite porch awning.
