Just be sure that you can fully open your sliding door when they are attached.Hi - our van came with a Thule Omnister awning fitted and a little bag containing two fittings which can be mounted on the side of the van so that the awning legs can be attached to the van rather the ground.
As the van is a panel van conversion, and I can get to the back of where the fixings would need to go, I should be able to get a very firm fixing on the van with stainless M6 bolts and penny washers on the reverse side, and I was also planning to protect the paint work around the fixing using Heli-tape. But before I get out the drill and start punching holes in my nice shiny van I thought I see if anyone had any thoughts on how good / sensible it is to set up an awning in this way.
I discounted this idea in my Renault Trafic conversion for this very reason.
