Anyone know how to get this off?
« on: June 26, 2017, 07:17:29 PM »
So we've bought the canvas annexe for the reconn after a few close calls with wind and I need to take the Thule off to fit it. It appears to just sit in an aluminium extrusion bracket and I have taken the screws out but it wont budge.

Just loan your camper to EHSC for  a trip to Burrum Heads with Jeepers and the crew, I beleive he still hasnt found the one off the side of his Jayco yet .. ;D..
Would there be any other fasteners holding it in place, grub screws or something ? from the top side of the ally extrusion .

Nope, I suspect it is silicone holding it on to the ally extrusion, I don't really want to ruin the awning and I don't want to bend the camper roof extrusion frame either
