Has anyone fitted a Tentbox side awning to their Eriba, or any advice on whether it is possible or advisable please.

Tentbox who make roof tents do a side awning as an accessory which looks a good fit for our Eriba Troll.

Gavin, you have three choices that Eriba owners use.
- A bolt it or stick it to the roof wind out Thule at about £1300. Rose Awnings in Dorset are the best for this. It will still allow you to fit an enclosed awning if you want. You can also add side and front panel to this, but I've always thought it a bit of a compromise.
- A Fiamma Caravanstore at 3.1m if you plan this to be your only fitment as it slides into the awning rail and can be left on when travelling. £400 new, but good used available at 1/2 that price. This will infringe on the door slightly.
- Isabella shadow 3.6m. Slides into the rail in seconds, great for sun protection and surprisingly good in the rain. A really good used is about £120/150.
You can add end panels to the Fiamma and Isabella for a bit of extra protection. Last year I sourced a couple and did not bother using our small air awning.
