Fix awning mounting brackets to roof racks without mounting tracks:

Place the L-brackets on top of your rack.

Make sure all L-brackets are aligned and have
the desired distance to your car before you mark
the drilling holes on your rack.

Drill at least 2 holes for each bracket. We highly
recommend to take the racks off your car for this
procedure.

Fix the brackets to your rack by using M6 bolts at
the necessary length and tensile strength.
