The Isabella Shade Side Right transforms your campervan's wind out canopy into a proper sheltered room by enclosing the right-hand side with a full-height panel that includes a large viewing window. This panel attaches directly to your vehicle using three suction cups and extends down to create a draught-free barrier, while the transparent window section maintains natural light and your view of the surroundings. It's specifically designed for campervans with 200cm deep canopies that are at least 260cm wide, fitting popular models like the VW California, Mercedes Marco Polo, Ford Nugget, and similar European campervans.
What sets this side panel apart is the CarbonX roof pole system that uses a telescopic carbon fibre pole with Isabella's IsaFix locking mechanism. You can tension the entire structure quickly without fiddling with guy ropes or complicated adjustments. The carbon fibre construction keeps weight down whilst providing serious rigidity against wind, and rubber brackets at both ends stop the pole shifting in blustery conditions. If you're setting up two separate zones under your canopy, you can reposition the roof pole to the centre rather than the edge. The panel itself uses IsaLite fabric at 195g/m2, which is Isabella's lightweight coated polyester that repels water and resists UV damage without feeling heavy or cumbersome to handle.
The right-hand version includes a zippered door panel, so you're not climbing over tent pegs every time you want to go in and out. One limitation worth noting is that the suction cup attachment works brilliantly on smooth campervan panels but struggles on textured or very curved surfaces, so check your vehicle's bodywork before ordering. You can buy the Van Front panel separately to fully enclose the space and create what's effectively an outdoor room under your canopy. The setup mounts at heights between 189-205cm, and Isabella includes tent pegs for additional ground anchoring when you're pitched up in exposed locations.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Isabella Shade Side Right fits wind out canopies that measure 200cm in depth and a minimum of 260cm in width. It mounts at heights between 189-205cm and has been confirmed compatible with VW California, Mercedes Marco Polo, Ford Nugget, Ford Nugget Plus, Renault Space Nomad and Nissan Primastar Seaside campervans. The three suction cup mounting system requires smooth bodywork panels for secure attachment. If your canopy dimensions fall outside these specifications or your vehicle has heavily textured side panels, this side panel may not achieve a proper seal.
The Isabella Shade Side Right includes a zippered door panel for entry and exit, designed to mount on the right-hand side of your wind out canopy when standing inside your campervan looking out. The left side version is a solid panel without a door opening. Your choice depends on which side of your campervan you want to create the entrance, based on your pitch orientation and campsite layout. Both versions use identical materials, dimensions (186cm x 185cm), and the same CarbonX roof pole system.
The three suction cups create a secure attachment on smooth campervan bodywork and work alongside the CarbonX telescopic roof pole system and included tent pegs for ground anchoring. The rubber brackets at both ends of the roof pole prevent wind movement during gusty conditions. Isabella designed this mounting method specifically for campervans to avoid drilling or permanent fixtures. The suction cups perform best on clean, non-porous surfaces and should be checked periodically during your stay, particularly after heavy rain or extreme temperature changes that can affect suction grip.
The CarbonX roof pole can be repositioned to the centre of your wind out canopy rather than the edge, allowing you to divide the space into two zones. However, the side panel itself only covers one side (186cm width), so you would need additional Isabella panels or dividers to create fully separated rooms. Combining the Shade Side Right with the Isabella Van Front panel creates a completely enclosed outdoor space, though this configuration provides one large room rather than two separate compartments.
The side panel uses IsaLite coated polyester fabric at 195 grams per square metre, with PVC base material at 350 grams per square metre. This construction provides water-repellent and UV-resistant properties whilst remaining lightweight for campervan use. The material sheds rain rather than being fully waterproof, meaning prolonged heavy downpours may result in some moisture penetration at seams or the window area. Isabella recommends periodic treatment with Aquatex reproofer for the windows and IsaClean followed by Aquatex for larger cleaning jobs to maintain weather resistance throughout the panel's lifespan.
The CarbonX carbon fibre roof pole keeps the overall weight low compared to aluminium pole systems, and the IsaLite fabric at 195g/m2 is Isabella's lightweight material specifically developed for easy handling. One person can set up the Shade Side Right due to the telescopic pole mechanism and IsaFix locking bracket that allows quick tensioning without needing assistance. The three suction cups attach individually to your campervan, the telescopic pole extends and locks into position, and the included tent pegs secure the bottom edge. Most users complete setup in under 10 minutes once familiar with the system.
The large window section maintains natural light inside your enclosed canopy space and provides clear outward visibility of your surroundings. Isabella designed the window placement and size to balance privacy from the solid lower panel sections whilst keeping the area bright and preventing a closed-in feeling. The transparent window material can be treated with Aquatex reproofer up to twice yearly to maintain clarity and weather resistance, though this should be wiped immediately with a dry cloth to prevent streaking or residue buildup.
The Isabella Shade Side Right must be completely removed before driving your campervan. The suction cup mounting system and roof pole structure are designed for stationary use only and cannot withstand the forces of vehicle movement, wind resistance, or road vibrations whilst travelling. The lightweight IsaLite material and carbon fibre pole pack down compactly for storage inside your vehicle between pitches. Isabella provides no guidance for transit attachment because the product is engineered exclusively as a pitch-up accessory for use with deployed wind out canopies.
