Budget Canopy Mod

My wee project for a Canopy with no Roof Rack required. A bit of quality Tarp and Camping poles off the short T-track on the roof.

how does the tarp attach to the t-track - do you have something slotting through the tarp eyes? Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

I think I used 75mm M8 Pan head coach bolts with thick penny washers with Thumb screws to secure....as pictured below. Along with Suction cups at either end....as pictured also.
