Any thoughts after permanently installing the Fiamma brackets can I move  the awning forward or aft? That will allow me to position it centered on my Westy not like the picture that GOWESTY has for their 10' unit.

>> Questions on installing a Fiamma awning on the Westy. I noticed that there is at least 2 different ways of installing the Fiamma. GOWESTY brackets are drilled and screwed to the vehicle while VanCafe is bolted to the vehicle. Does anyone have experience which bracket is better? Is the difference more stability than the other? I have a lot of rough roads out here and didn't want the awning to fly off when driving, etc.
