Isabella X-Tension

We have just bought an Isabella Air X-tension, with an Isabella modified California uk tunnel.

Can I ask if there is anything we should know about fitting the tunnel i.e. regarding the cuts in the Keder? which is the Isabella mod for the Eriba.

I found with mine (as supplied to fit a VW campervan) that the sides of the tunnel where it joined the Eriba were not even.
I therefore made a small cut in the Keder strip to allow the side to drop slightly, that allowed for better shaping when pegging out and tensioning the tunnel.

Thank you GrandpaP, I think I know what you mean.
So the cut bit doesn't go in the awning rail.

Could you upload the tunnel photos here?
I think we have the same problem with a poorly fitting tunnel and it would be good to see how to make it better.
Isabella told me the tunnel was suitable for an Eriba Troll, but it's clearly not. Sagging down over the door, gaping holes at the caravan side and unable to fit to the ground.
