Thule Awning AdapterAdapters are divided into 2 categories and 3 vehicle groups. Thus, to choose the right adapter, one has to keep in mind if the awning which is to be mounted will be mounted on the vehicle’s side wall with a wall adapter, or as a roof awning, which is mounted in a lying position onto the vehicle’s roof with a roof adapter.Additionally, the adapters available are manufactured to fit either certain vehicle groups, or even specific vehicle models. Between the vehicle groups, it is distinguished between campers/ caravans, motor homes and camper-vans/vans.The mounting of adapters should be accomplished by a specialised firm. This company can also examine precisely, how and where the adapter should be mounted. This saves you from later-occurring problems if you eventually would like to add additional awning components.Awning adapters should always be mounted behind the jointed arm fixation – this prevents potential bending of the awning.
