Hi Peeps
I want to remove the awning on my T6.1 Ocean. I never use it, so it's a drag in every sense of the word. There have been several threads about this, and there is a video (
) that I will follow, so I'm happy with how to go about it.
What I need to know, and can't find anywhere, is the spec for the shorter bolts that I should use to fill the holes left when I take the clamps off. Does anybody know what I will need, please?
Also, if anyone has removed their awning on the T6 or T6.1, any gotchas would be nice to know.
I know it will be a faff putting it back on, so I'll leave that for the next owner to do.
Other reasons for removing it:
1 I want to do some stealth camping, so I want it to look as little like a campervan as possible. That's why I got one in white. Also, copy of the Sun, empty Benson and Hedges fag packets, half-full Lucozade bottles, Screwfix catalogue and bits of leftover KFC on the dashboard to help with the effect.
2 Is it just me, or is it damned ugly?
3 I don't want it stolen. Actually, I wouldn't mind it being stolen - I just don't want the rest of the van damaged when they do it.
