Hi Guys, I have just purchased a Lunar Quasar 626, now I have just realised how the heck do I cover the 2 wheels (twin axle) when I have my awning up.
On my last van we had 3 press studs screwed to the van side to which I clipped the cover on, but it used to flap if it was a little windy.
I am sure I have seen some sort of cover wrapped around the full arch.
Thanks for replies.....

Hi Neil and Lena, only towed it once 20 miles motorway and 15 miles on the A68 and coming from the Zenith 6 single axle it seems very stable.
I have just got the outlander (company car) so all a bit green at the moment.
Just to confuse things more my plate on the van says MPTLM 1599.

I Would think 1599 kg is right a pity though because our Honda is a bit light at 1660kg so it would be 97% match

Sorry got a little off topic !
Anyone else have any ideas without putting screws in me van.
Have read somewhere somebody uses heavy duty cardboard, and another uses ply board cut to size.
Anyone ??
Regards.......
