Rear Awning ?

Anyone running there awning off the rear of there LC? I believe it can be done relatively easily using the rear spoiler holes, just wondering if anyone has done this and any pro's/con's. Thanks
 
I have one on the rear of my HDJ81. It's mounted to a thule roof bar.
Very nice having the rear of the truck covered.

You've just got to make sure you get the mounts up high a bit so that the rear hatch doesn't hit the awning too bad when you open it. The Thule and Yakima rack ideas are super cool.
 
Nice! What brackets are you using, looks like factory rack?

Thule rack. No idea what the brackets are, the rear awning and racks came with the truck.
It's a pretty janky set up, the brackets that attach to the rail have a post that points up, and the piece that bolts to the awning rail has a piece of square tubing on them that sits over top of the post. It's held down with bungees.

It's a temporary set up, but I have wheeled the truck some and it hasn't been an issue.
