Hi Randy,

There are so many options.  You need to narrow it down a bit.  Yes awnings attach usually to the rain gutter.  You can do permanent attached such as ARB or Fiamma or even the NAPA version all sizes and prices.  They usually need brackets from a vender to attach.  Or Bus Depot version goes on when you arrive and many like that one as well.  Or others just Brin an easy up and place in front of slider.  So many options. 

        I went for years with the bus depot awning and I still like it.  But now I use the Fiamma attached one.  I purchased one for my 85 and my 84 came with one. 

Check the usual places for some extra info, bus depot and GW.  I actually like the brackets from VC the best.
