Vehicle Awnings

Car Awnings - Side, Foxwing And Batwing

Do you regularly go camping, or have outdoors activities such as barbies, and such? Then a vehicle awning might be a useful addition to your car, ute or truck.

There are different types of awnings, from the regular side awnings which extend on either the driver's or passenger's side of your vehicle, or foxwing and batwing awnings, which are sometimes called 270 awnings, or 180 awnings based on the degree of extension they have.

The latter models tend to be more expensive, as they are not only longer, but offer a much vast shaded area. A regular side awning might not be as impressive, yet it get's the job done, by providing shelter from all elements, sun and rain in particular, and allow you to sit under them, relax, read a book or eat a meal.

Awnings are very easy to install on any vehicle, and most of them have already got the brackets to attach to any roof rack, cross-bars or even side rails. If the regular brackets won't fit, it's possible to purchase L-shaped brackets in order to make things work.

Some awnings also give you the possibility of adding awning walls and even an awning room, ideal for better protection, or to have a place to camp, sleep, or store things.
