Lightweight and versatile as well as UV resistant and shower-proof this VW sun canopy is 3 metres long by 2.4 metres depth making it one of the largest on the market.
Each sun canopy has five eyelets, comes with three height adjustable poles and six guylines.
Use all 3 poles with guylines tied to pole tips in a straight type configuration (photo 23, 31, 35 or 36) or our personal favourite, just 1 middle pole adjusted to a fair height with guylines tied directly to the remaining 4 eyelets making a sort of ridge tent configuration (photo 46) - ideal for breezier conditions and light showers.
In fact with a bit of imagination and combinations of using either 1, 2 or 3 poles at varying heights with guylines tied to either pole tips or directly to the eyelets the possibilities are endless, making this canopy one of the most versatile out there.

Attaching Your VW Sun Canopy
There are two methods for attaching the sun canopy Pole and Clamp (which comes as standard) or Figure of 8 joining strip (which you can add to your order).
Pole and Clamp method is ideal for 90% of Split Screens, Bay Windows and Type 25’s – just slide the gutter pole through the canopy sleeve, place in gutter and secure using the 3 clamps (which have rubber padding to avoid scratching your pride and joy).
In some rarer cases in which the roof fills or obstructs the gutter rail (as some high tops do) we recommend the use of three Figure of 8 joining strip which slide onto piped edging already attached to the canopy and then clip onto the gutter rail. This latter method works fine with Bay's and T25’s but can be problematic with Splitty’s as the gutter edge is smaller.
If you’re in any doubt as to whether your wagon will take the pole and clamp - please measure before ordering or use something of same diameter and physically try it – the gutter pole diameter is 16mm but with plastic bungs on each end allow 19mm x 3.2m length.
