I just purchased a Tepui awning and am trying to figure out the best way to mount it to my Gobi rack. Gobi offers a mount for the ARB awning, I am curious if the track width is the same on the ARB as the Tepui. Anyone know the width on the ARB or have any other ideas? Thanks!

As far as I know, most all the awnings are pretty much the same.
My Cvt looks and measures the same as other brands.

Agreed. There may be some spacing differences, but as long as you get that top hole to line up, you could always drill a second hole for the bottom, or slot the bottom hole.

The ARB awning slot spacing is about 1-7/8" center to center. I used a Foxwing mount for my ARB awning and drilled an extra hole for the appropriate spacing.
