Very nice , I have similar setup . Have gotten so spoiled with the side storage I don't think I could do without it. Is your side storage weatherproof ? How did you make the connection between the side doors and the camper ?

No, not weatherproof. However, drove for a full day in the rain across Utah and Nevada and not much water got in. We don't keep anything in there that would be damaged if it got wet. I will eventually get around to sealing it a little better, but it's a low priority at the moment.

I added a piece of 1" aluminum angle to the underside of the camper. The latches are "T" handle and rotate to latch behind the angle. The camper does not move, so the doors stay latched.

I have pretty much come to the same conclusion , anything that needs to stay dry goes in a plastic bin . With the curves of the Avion it would take a bit of work to make it weatherproof . If it was a dedicated truck I might try but the truck is used for other purposes off season so not worth it . Picture is in my profile . Have fun
