I have just bought this tent from my cousin (pic in my profile).

I'd love to get an extension or canopy for it to give me some extra space to cook in but have been told there wasn't a specific one made for the 2009 version.

Does anyone have this age of Icarus and have you found a canopy that fits? Do the later canopies or extensions fit the 2009 model. I'm not that fussed about colour matching exactly.

Many thanks

I've spoken to Vango who have advised me that a 2010 or 2011 canopy will fit but where to find one? All ideas appreciated.

Hi. Do you know which model extension or year you bought it?

Thanks
