Recently purchased a SWB and want to fit a wind out awning. I currently have one brand new sitting in the garage that I bought several years ago when we bought a lwb high top T5 but never fitted as there were no suitable brackets for the high top roof. My question is has anyone ever fitted a 3 metre awning instead o the 2.6 metre? If I did it I would fit a third roof bracket but wondered if it had been done before?
 
The windscreen place near us have Transit Custom hightops with an awning that extends from the back almost to the front bumper.

Often thought it would be useful to shelter the passenger door completely. Can't see why not?
 
When I did mine I was told a 3.0m would not fit in my custom so went for 2.6m... could easily have taken a 3.0m one though! Only thing I can think of is if I was ever going to put down sides then the 2.6m matches in better with rear of passenger door. As for brackets does a 3.0m actually need three? Mine are nowhere near the suggested points and hasn't moved in a couple of years... Can you test fit first without drilling brackets into awning cassette?
