Hi, I have just bought a 2017 sprite Major 6 and am looking to buy a porch awning. Given the location of the doors and windows does anyone know which size will fit so as to sit between the door and lounge window at one end and past the bunk bed windows at the other?

Separately Kampa Air Ace Pro or Vango Kalari.

Cheers in advance

Hi, yes very exciting.

The dealer said it needed to be 4m or under but seems a bit vague tbh.

Yes all I need is the dimensions from midpoint between the door and langue window to the back edge of the bunk windows.

The door is at the front end of the van and bunk windows on the same side so not much room for manouvre.

we used our outdoor revolution speed II on our major 6. (we have changed it now), but the awning had to go half way over the bunk windows. It didn't cause us any issue, and just helped the kids keep the windows on the latch or just slightly open.

but we love the awning and heck it copes with a lot of wind!

it only comes in one size i thought....ours is the speed II which i think is 4 meters.

the rail was plenty long enough for it, and it sat between the front window and door, and then half way across the bunk windows.
We have also used it on a variety of sloping pitches and there is plenty of adjustment in the anchor point straps to cope with anything you can throw at it.

Hi, have the 2016 Sprite Major 6td and have used a kampa rally pro 390 untill recently.This awning size fits perfectly from just past the dining window to just before the lounge window. Any 390 model will fit perfectly. Hope this helps
