  Product Description
This bracket kit lets you fit a Fiamma F45 awning to left-hand drive VW T5 and T6 Transporters with pop-up roofs. Designed specifically for these lift roof variants, the mounting system accounts for the roof mechanism whilst providing solid attachment points for your awning. The deep black powder coat finish matches most factory roof colours and resists corrosion better than standard painted brackets.

Fiamma manufactures these brackets in Italy using steel construction with reinforced mounting plates. The kit includes all fixings needed to attach an F45 awning securely, with brackets positioned to avoid interfering with the lift roof operation. Each bracket bolts directly to the vehicle's existing mounting points without drilling additional holes in most cases, though some T5 variants need minor modifications.

These brackets work exclusively with Fiamma F45 awnings in all lengths from 190cm through to 400cm. They won't fit F35, F40, or F80 models due to different rail profiles. The left-hand drive specification means the brackets position the awning on the correct side for European-market Transporters. Right-hand drive UK models need different brackets with opposite-side mounting geometry. The deep black finish coordinates with Volkswagen's standard roof colours including black, grey, and darker metallic paints.

Frequently Asked Questions


Will these brackets fit my right-hand drive UK Transporter?
No, these brackets are specifically designed for left-hand drive European-market Transporters. Right-hand drive UK models need the RHD version of this bracket kit because the awning mounts on the opposite side of the vehicle. Using LHD brackets on a RHD vehicle will position the awning incorrectly and create clearance issues with doors and panels.
Do these brackets work with fixed high roofs or just pop-top roofs?
These brackets are engineered specifically for lift roofs and elevating roofs on T5 and T6 Transporters. Fixed high roof models need different brackets because the mounting points and roof structure differ completely. The lift roof brackets account for the pop-top mechanism and position the awning to avoid interference when raising or lowering the roof.
Which Fiamma awning models are compatible with these brackets?
These brackets fit all Fiamma F45 awnings from 190cm to 400cm in length. They don't work with F35, F40, F65, or F80 models because those awnings have different rail profiles and attachment systems. The F45 range includes F45S, F45L, F45 Eagle, and F45 Ti models, all of which use this same bracket system.
Can I fit these brackets myself or do I need professional installation?
Most people with basic mechanical skills can fit these brackets using hand tools. The kit includes all fixings and typically bolts to existing mounting points on the vehicle roof rails. Some T5 variants need minor drilling or modification to roof trim pieces. The main challenge is getting the bracket spacing accurate so the awning rail sits level, which requires careful measurement and a second person to help position components during installation.
What's the difference between T5 and T6 mounting requirements?
These brackets fit both T5 and T6 Transporters because the roof rail mounting points remained in the same positions across both generations. The main difference is that some early T5 models from 2003-2009 have slightly different roof trim that may need minor trimming for awning clearance. T6 models from 2015 onwards typically have cleaner installations with less modification needed.
Will the deep black finish match my vehicle's roof colour?
The deep black powder coat finish works best with black, dark grey, and darker metallic roof colours. It creates reasonable contrast against white or light silver roofs but doesn't match perfectly. Fiamma also offers these brackets in white and titanium finishes for lighter coloured vehicles. The black finish is more corrosion resistant than painted alternatives and holds up better in coastal or winter conditions.
