Fiamma rear awning: screw mount maintenance check

Thanks for the heads-up, silver, The Colorado Awning can very well act as a wick, holding water. Ours is worn out, after 9 years of frequent use and many miles of hard travel. I'll have to replace it.

Some of the hardware is also at the end of its useful life. The plastic rod that locks the drum has broken, the retracting spring has sprung and the canvas has become transparent in spots. The awning has done a good job in harsh conditions from the Atlantic shores to North Pacfic at Alaska.
