Good video mate. I want to do a similar thing but mount on the back. Just wondering what hinge you settled on in the end? Was it in the video? I may have missed it.
@@sigoau cheers mate, I didn’t show the hinge but just go to Bunnings and hit the hinge aisle and get a nice sturdy one with minimal play you could you a gate strap that was one option I was thinking of, but the hing I went for was very similar to the one that collapsed on me
Yes sorry ended up forgetting to film about that one but basically I screwed the magnetic side of the latch to the awning and then lined it up and mounted the latching side to the roof rack. This allows me to just push it in and it automatically closes. Any other questions DM me on instagram

So much more fulfilling when you can make it yourself rather then spending an arm and a leg on a prebuilt piece
Wow! What a Roller Coaster!!!
Love the idea mate! Nicely executed!
👏👏👏

Would have been nice to see how you did the latch on it
