Yescom Brand Vehicle Awnings

Last year while looking at purchasing a side-mount awning for my Crosstrek, and after seeing how expensive some awnings could be through traditional off-road/overland websites, I opted for one I found on Amazon.

I chose the Yescom 7.6' x 8.2' Car Side Awning Rooftop Pull Out Tent Shelter - PU 2000mm UV50+ in the color grey. I was able to easily install it to my roof rails without any issues using the supplied hardware, and after using it for some time now, I am very happy with the quality, integrity, and overall features. For $149, I think I got my money's worth on this deal and more.

The Amazon reviews were mostly positive (there had been an issue with older versions where the awning had been installed in the track upside-down that had been fixed by the time I purchased mine).

NOTE: The grey version of the awning is no longer available on Amazon; however, they do have a beige version in the same size, as well as a couple of slightly smaller versions that cost less. Also, the tie-downs and stakes are a bit different from what I received. I might suggest you use sturdier stakes to ensure the awning isn't compromised in windy conditions.

I put the awning to good use recently at the Ironwood Forest Desert Rendezvous that took place mid-April, and using the factory tie-downs and stakes, it stayed put even when the wind got really gusty.

If you're interested in an inexpensive option for an awning, I highly recommend Yescom's product. On Amazon, search Yescom Car Awning to see what's currently available.

Cheers!
