IMHO this is the way to go. Attach sun shade to the valance.
I had the sun shade one that fit into the track. That's all fine and good but when a sudden storm comes up you now have to fight to get that out of the track before you can roll up your awning in time to save it.
Couple of spring loaded clips from Lowes and attach to valance. Takes 2 seconds to get it off so you can roll up the awning.
