    I have a 16' scamp with many mods and added a very similar hatch right behind the tire. Since I had modified the interior a great deal there was a new twin bunk on each side. On this side I boxed in an enclosure for outside access with the hatch for entry. It is very handy for all of that stuff that you really don't want inside.

    Hello Shaun, I hope you are well. Do you happen to have the part numbers of the awning accessories? I would like to accessorize the awning and it did not come with these items. There are a lot of options on the Thule website and I do not have the actual awning part number to match. I am not sure how to contact you directly. I look forward to hearing from you. Regards, TJ
