Darche Eclipse 270 Awning Gen 2

The Eclipse 270° Awning brings next-level shade to your 4WD camping setup. Offering a huge 11.5m² of instant cover, it spans the full length of your vehicle, then wraps around to the rear, giving you greater cover than a straight awning.

Designed for an easy one-person set up, the unit is freestanding during set up and pack down. The heavy-duty alloy swivel hinge system holds the entire kit up while you extend and tension the awning arms and release the three pivoting alloy telescopic leg poles stowed along the rafters. Attach the final leg poles and you’ll be under cover in a matter of minutes. 

The awning is made from premium 320gsm ripstop polycotton canvas and has an impressive PU 1500mm water rating plus seam sealing that will keep you dry in extended rainy conditions. The kit also includes a removable, heavy-duty 600gsm PVC cover for protection when you’re on the road.

The box-tube alloy arm system is light, strong and built to last. Available in left or right-hand side mount configurations (Australian passenger or driver side), you can put one on the car, on the camp trailer or the shed – your options are endless. With multiple wall panels to choose from (sold separately), you can set up one as a wind and weather break or add them all for a whopping 20.5m2 of shelter around your vehicle. 

The included mounting brackets suit most commercially available flat roof rack or steel basket set ups. Make sure to check the weight rating and suitability of your roof rack and vehicle with appropriate manufacturers prior to purchase. We recommend professional installation through your local 4WD centre or ask your DARCHE dealer for advice about installation.

NOTE: for dual-cab ute installation – install over the tray OR the body – not over both. 

If your awning has a fully-enclosed transit cover that wraps around the backing plate of the awning, please find the installation instruction for that cover under the "Specifications" section below.

Ensure awning is anchored with supplied guy ropes and pegs at all times when in use.
