Hi all,
I have a Khyam Marseille 9 DLX.Brill tent but when it rains and doors are open the rain gets in as the doors are at such a steep angle.This was a real pain last year and spoiled the set up of the tent.We did put a gezebo over door which worked but was a pain to do. How would I go about attaching an eyebrow/rain cover over the top of the smaller door. I have seen these sewn into tents and think there agreat idea.Or can anybody suggest any other options.
Cheers

I don't think you could sew something on to a tent easily but it would be simple to get a tarp, sew two webbing straps on to it, throw the straps over the tent and guy down on the other side of the tent.

Use a couple of poles and another two lengths of guy rope and you could have something like this.

In this case the webbing straps have a c clip attached to the other end which I just attach to the tent itself. You can get C clips for webbing on ebay or in a caravan supplies place.
