Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Hey everyone!  :)  What do you do when your plastic awning clip breaks when you are bringing the awning in?

Along similar lines, what you do when you notice a tear where the awning rolls into?

When researching the broken awning clip, I found an awning cover http://awningpro-tech.com/.  I have never tried these, but it looks like it might be a potential way to prevent further damage.  I am not sure how to repair it though.  Hopefully someone else can help you with that.

After taking a closer look at the clip in the daylight, we were able to secure it back in place. Lesson learned, do not slide the slide bar too far or too quickly when putting the awning in or out.

 I'm not sure if this would help you as a temporary fix or not, but my hubby and I were in a camping store today.  I saw a product called awning tape.  I don't know much about it but you might try doing a google search for that and see if it may be useful to you.  smile
