Ours came with some small metal clips. Unfortunately, they died fairly soon....sorry, Bob. A trip to Harbor Freight got us a couple of plastic canisters of assorted sizes of plastic clips....maybe 15 or so per canister. Our ROO didn't have anywhere to attach to a rain gutter, but we just pulled it up as high as possible, used one of the bigger clips up top, smaller down the sides and large on the bottom. The bunkend had a sort of trim piece that we clipped to. The bungees were long enough to wrap down, around the bumper and clip back onto itself. We only had one time in 7 seasons when DH took one down for fear it would blow away and that was with 40 - 50 mph winds hitting straight onto the rear bunk. BTW, if you don't already have a 4' step ladder as part of your HTT gear, you might want to look into one. We used ours many, many times in setting up the bunks, especially if we were not on totally flat ground. Makes putting the PUGS on a bunch easier. Also proved invaluable when our awning gave way during the night and we had to take it completely off and put into the bed of the truck....couldn't have gotten home otherwise as the awning completely folded in half from the weight of rain - lesson learned on that one! Happy camping!
