Hi guys

we have an icarus 500 that we bought a couple of years ago and I would really like to buy the front porch extension for it but am not sure if it will fit as they all say 2011 on them. Does anyone know if they fit all icarus 500s?? If not is there anything else that will?

thanks

The 2011 front enclosed extension will fit the older Icarus. The only problem is the colours are different. The 2011 extension are all moss or surf blue. What colour is your Icarus ?

We have the 2010 Icarus Tent and the 2011 Enclosed canopy and as everybody says they look fine. Quite eye catching in fact.

I think the colours will look fine as long as you stick to the greens. Best to keep looking on line as they do cary so much. If you do find a reasonable priced one Go outdoors will price match it less 10% !!

If you look in the Icarus tent review pictures there should be a pic of the new green one on the old green tent

It looks as though the enclosed extension has been discontinued. Is that correct?

The open extension has been discontinued but you can still get the 2011 enclosed one. The 2012 enclosed extension is wider because the new Icarus 500 is wider than least years
