Clingons,nothing to do with Star trek.

[ANTHONYB1]

Hi,I,ve been trying to find a way to stop the wind from blowing between the gaps of my porch awning(sun camp type)and the caravan side,and I think that I,ve finally succeeded.
The answer is called CLINGONS,which are plastic instant eyelets,you attach them to part of the awning that is supposed to come around the rear leg of the awning,use a rubber cup sucker to attach it to the side wall and it really works,brill problem solved.
All the items can be sourced at Ebay,clingons about £1 each,rubber suckers 45mm, £3 for 10.
They also work well on the wheel cover,keeps it nice and taut. I hope someone finds this helpful.they really do work.
Anthony.

We use these on the bottom sheet on the fixed bed with bungy elastics underneath as well as using them on the awning

I use them to suspend an inner sheet (old bed sheets) in the roof of the awning, keeps damp down and helps retain heat when fan heater in use.

Hi Anthony, sounds good, ive been looking at securing the awning sides for a time!
I can get the suckers from B&M bargains for around £1 for 10, I have entered clingons to E bay, but it comes back with no items found?
What size do you use?
Have you a link?
