VW Arched Awning Pictures Shared By A Customer
Although instructions are included with a VW Arched Awning, there is usually a learning curve to get it set up just right.
This customer set it up great the very first try, and shared the pictures for me to post.

10' x 8' Grey Beige Chip Fancy Awning in Progress
