ATTACHING BRACKET TO ROOF-RACK

Darche’s Eclipse Awning brackets have been designed 

to fit most common roof rack configurations. However, 

with the ever increasing number of roof rack designs 

available it is difficult to supply a mounting bracket to 

accommodate all. Below are examples of how to mount 

the Eclipse Awning brackets to Flat style and Basket style

roof racks. The bracket can also be mounted on roof 

bars, however, additional specific attachments may need 

to be sourced from your roof rack supplier.
If in doubt, visit your roof rack specialist for specific roof 

rack mounting options and advice on load capacities.
