Awning for rhino roof rack

[netjam Lurker Find all posts View Profile Close netjam]

Looking for the awning 270 and after checking numerous reviews I come up with the short list

DRIFTA RAPID WING AWNING 18kg and less expensive, so far preferable
Ostrich Awning 270 27kg (too heavy??)
Alu-cab 270 24kg

Ideas?

i have the Darche 270 awning ( a true 270deg compared to the rest and strong)
i think it does weigh 30kg but it offers a lot of shade , 3 poles that are attached

i did get the walls but haven't used them ( i am returning the small wall as my rear door on the prado is in the way

if the sun is wrong i can just move the car with it open
takes bugga all to open , still revising my Technic to close it up (they have now changed it again)

seen too many of the fox wings etc fold over the roof , and most put them down with any sort of wind

i wanted an ostrich wing but was too much money at the time and doesn't cover the area that the darche does

I was looking at Darche as well but there were complaints about leaks near edges while raining. Did you use it during rain?
what roof rack do you have? I am a bit sceptical about rhino rack with such a weight on the site
