Hi all.  We are new to this site and are really helping you can help us.  We have a size 12 awning that we used to have on our old lunar lexon end kitchen 1999 model and as the dealer didn't want it, we have kept it. We now have an Eldiss Typhoon, measuring 890 cm and would really like to use it.  Will it be too big?

We're praying it won't be, but could really use some advice.

Thank you.

We're a bit naive about these things i'm afraid.  But willing to learn!

That's what we thought, we're going to have a go this weekend!!

We always thought the awning was a little small for the lunar as we had to stretch it to reach the floor, so maybe on the smaller size of a 12 anyway.
