Stylish Ways to Customise Your Campervan Exterior

At Rose Awnings, we understand that a well-equipped awning transforms your camper van into a stylish and functional outdoor haven. The Thule QuickFit awning is a standout choice for its sleek design and rapid installation, but pairing it with the right accessories can take your setup to the next level. In this guide, we’ll explore the best add-ons from our Rose Awnings range to enhance comfort, security and style.

LED Lighting for Extended Evenings

Nothing sets the mood like soft, ambient light. Rose Awnings offers the Thule LED Strip, designed to clip neatly into your awning rail and illuminate your outdoor space for up to 12 hours on a single charge. Mounted inside a diffuser channel, these LED strips provide even, glare-free lighting—perfect for alfresco dinners or late-night board games. Dimmable and energy-efficient, they integrate seamlessly with the Thule QuickFit awning to create a warm, inviting atmosphere.

Stability and Security Accessories

A secure awning is a stylish awning. Our Thule Side Strap Kit prevents lift in gusty conditions by anchoring the front bar to ground anchors or Peggy Peg Anchor Plates. For ultimate peace of mind, combine this with the Peggy Peg Start Kit, which includes peg sets and straps for rapid deployment and retraction, even as weather turns. These upgrades maintain your camper van’s sleek exterior lines while ensuring your awning stays firmly in place.

Weatherproofing and Sealing Solutions

Gap-free installation not only looks tidy but also keeps rain and draughts at bay. Rose Awnings stocks Sealing Strips for roof-mounted awnings, designed to bridge the gap between your vehicle and the awning housing. Made from durable EPDM rubber, these seals prevent water ingress and wind noise, preserving your camper van’s clean exterior finish.

Comfort and Privacy Additions

Extend your living space with bespoke panels and rooms. The Thule Rain Blocker G2 side walls attach quickly to the QuickFit under-arm, creating a sheltered retreat from wind and rain. For those seeking full enclosure, our Thule Panorama Room offers panoramic windows and zip-in walls, converting your awning into an all-weather living room that complements your van’s exterior styling.

Motor Kits for Effortless Operation

For effortless extension and retraction, consider the Thule Omnistor 6300 12 V motor kit. With one-button operation, it eliminates manual cranking and preserves the clean lines of your camper van’s side profile. Our installation team can integrate this motor seamlessly, ensuring wiring is hidden and switches are conveniently placed inside your habitation area.

QuickFit Storage and Spare Parts

Organisation is key to maintaining a clutter-free exterior. Rose Awning offers Thule Storage Bags to store your awning and accessories compactly on roof racks or in storage bays. Should you ever need replacement parts, Rose Awnings stocks genuine Thule spares—everything from tension rafter clips to front and side inserts—so your setup remains as stylish and reliable as day one.

Getting the Most from Your Setup

To achieve a cohesive look, coordinate accessory finishes—choose anodised grey brackets and rails to match your Thule QuickFit awning hardware. Regular maintenance is crucial: clean fabrics with a mild detergent and inspect seals quarterly to preserve performance and appearance. For expert advice on compatibility with roof racks and van conversions, our website provides detailed fitment charts.
