I see reports where the fig8 has only been gently pushed over the lip of the rain gutter and hence is loose, could this be your problem ?
There seems to be two methods to get it on tightly, slide it from one end all the way along or place it over the lip and then pull downwards until it clicks ...

Sorry I can't help with the awning, but great looking Bongo, and welcome aboard.

No problem Bob, thank you

Good morning,

Looking for some help please :)

First time owners of a Mazda Bongo Hi-Top and very much enjoying :D The issue I’m having is fixing the awning. I purchased the “Outdoor Revolution Turismo” - drive away awning after looking online...

I tried to fix with the fig 8 and Kadar strip ...
