Kevin:
I've had an awning from Carefree of Colorado for several
years. They make 8' and 10' and have brackets for
Vanagons--that fit a Westy. Mine isn't a Westy and
could use a simpler bracket, but....
I have the 10' which they say takes two people to
unroll/roll, but I can do it alone. It extends over
the passenger door so to protect that window. I
really like it and it is well made. The model is
Sidewinder II. You can see it on my bus at
http://coyote.colorado.edu/jones/DV but is isn't
unrolled; it was never hot/sunny enough in Death
Valley to use it in January. :-(
I bought it through an RV dealer. Carefree of Colorado
is about 8 miles from Boulder (in Broomfield) but they
sell through dealers. I think the price was ~$225,
but don't remember exactly, since it's been a few years.
Anyway, I highly recommend it!
