I have been trying to get a company to supply and fit a wind out awning like a Fiamma F80s for my Fiat Ducato Trigano Tribute 2003 (53 Reg). I cannot do it my self as not physically able. It has the reinforced "T" posts on the roof. It is an H2L3 variant van.
all the companies seem reluctant to take on this work. One estimated it as £2000.00! A look on the Fiamma website shows an F80s plus clamps for around £1000.00. and the estimated fitting time around 4 hrs...
Anyone know of anywhere I could go in the Norfolk/East Anglia area?. I could stay overnight in the van if it was a bit of a journey.
Thank you in advance.

    Kevin - if you are prepared to consider an alternative make - such as Thule - I can thoroughly recommend Rose Awnings in Poole. I know it's a bit of a trek from where you are but they have an arrangement with a nearby campsite to accommodate customers of theirs. Have a word with John or Daniel and see if they can help you.

    Give >these people< a ring, they fitted a replacement on my motorhome. I assume you have tried Simpsons.

    Hi @KevinJordan. Like @richardandros, Ican thoroughly recommend Rose Awnings down in Poole. They supplied and fitted Thule windout awnings to our previous caravan as to our current one. Not sure where you are located, (we're in Tamworth), but we went down to a local site for a few days. We arrived on the Sunday, took the caravan in to John on the Monday when they fitted the brackets. (The brackets needed time to bond to the roof before he could fit the canopy tbe next day.). We then took the van back to the site overnight. On the Tuesday we went back for the canopy to be fitted.... job done.
