Hi Tam and welcome to the site.

There's been a lot of discussions on this in the past (I just did a search on "Easy Awning" and it came up with 375 threads which mention it. weint_vor_lachen

They are hard to come by and the best bet is to watch E-bay - sometimes folk scrap the main unit as it's had it and sell the awning which hasn't normally been used as much.

One of our members gave up trying to find an awning and bought a new unit instead.

Another member have one that they adapted from a Conway trailer tent awning.

I'm sure they will be along soon to explain.

Hi tam and welcome - as caz says awnings on their own do come up occasionally on ebay but they're quite rare. Bren and petes awning from a conway gazelle works well, or a freestanding day tent or porch awning would work too. Good luck with your search - we will keep our eyes open!

By the way, if you happen to have a sun canopy for an Easy, Dodge is looking to swap her awning for a canopy Very Happy

I am the member who gave up looking for an awning after a year without one, and sold the Easy to buy a Panda weint_vor_lachen

In the meantime, I used a Sunncamp day room as a makeshift awning for my Easy. It wasn't ideal but it gave me shelter for cooking and somewhere to sit out. Photo below Very Happy

Tam we use a 1985 Conway Gazellle awning with our Combi Sport, the poles match up but not the zips so instead its attached using clips. Have a look at our photos

On my first Combi, a Speed, we were given a c@r@v@n awning, which I altered to make fit - bought the matching zip from Siggy at Mangine, and stitched it on instead of the awning channel cord. I bought a trio c@r@v@n awning and did the same with my 3rd Combi - a Family.

I just got a combi camp today and can't figure out how to set up the awning. Not positive on the model but it looks just like the model on the main page . If anyone has a diagram of how it is supposed to go it would be greatly appreciated. I can usually figure these things out but this one is killin me! Thanks to anyone who can help.
