Attaching String Lights to a WeatherPro Awning
I'd like to attach decorative string lights to my AE WeatherPro Power Awning but don't want to compromise its operation. I noticed that the end fittings do not rotate and the exterior faces of the main vertical-to-horizontal arms at each end are not involved in retracting the awning.
With the awning open: I'd like to run 1/8" nylon parachute cord from an adhered hook at the in-board end of the horizontal arm to the out-board end, lash it to the end fitting, and then drape it horizontally across the out-board face of the awing to the other end fitting, lash it there, and then back to an adhered hook at the in-board end of the arm.
I could then lace, clip or zip-tie the string lights to the nylon cord.
Any thoughts.
