Awning rail fitting
I was fitting my newly acquired Soplair Vendee awning to my early 80s Puck and one of the fittings in the top rail where the awning clips into is cracked and I was wondering if this is a generic awning fitting or unique to Eribas and if so where would I get one.It is an aluminium bracket with a hole for the awning pole.

I think AL or Jandi will be the best source of metal ones. They seem impossible to find on the internet but I think some new Eribas are sent out with them being used as bathroom door closure fittings so try the dealers.
Incidentally don't overlook the plastic spacer behind the awning bracket. This is necessary to allow the awning bracket to sit outside the aluminium awning rail.

It was easier to put a spacer where the bracket used to be - and where it had squashed the infill strip flat - than it was to replace the entire length of infill.
I've come to the conclusion that it's simpler to ring Jandi, enjoy a pleasant if occasionally protracted conversation with a lovely helpful person and get the bits from them instead of spending yonks trying to work out what combination of search words will unpick the lock to Google's store of awning rail plastic bracket two-hole spacer stand-off caravan.

Thanks for the replies,I'll try Jandi as I am missing the little bracket for the draught skirt over the wheel arch as well.I took it off last year when I was spraying the arches and wheels and forgot to put it back on and now I cannot find it so I will add it to the list.
The 'little bracket over the wheel arch' is just a short piece of awning rail isn't it?
I can send you a piece if you have trouble getting it.
