Awning Brackets / "Z" Brackets

Please Carefully Read All Information and Open All Tabs Before Purchasing.

Thank you for reading the disclaimer here.

 

Description

These exclusive BlingMyRig brackets allow you to securely hang your awning, with or without a PopTop!

Works perfectly with your awning (up to 10ft length) so you can be protected from the sun, rain, snow, and the elements.

Ford vans have three brackets and do not require any holes drilled into your rig.

Great news! We are now also making awning brackets (aka "Z" Brackets) for Chevy / GMC vans. These sets have two brackets and require a hole to be drilled into your rig for each one.

As always, never use your awning in windy conditions unless it’s properly secured down. See our Fiamma page for a great tie-down kit.

These brackets, while easy to install, require very careful attention to some critical details which must be adhered to. Failure to do so may result in the awning coming off the brackets, or the brackets coming off the van. If this happens, both the awning and the vehicle can be damaged, and this is all on you / the installer!

These critical installation details are outlined in the Disclaimer and Release Agreement. This is also covered extensively in our Awning Brackets Installation Page.

Compatibilty

If you have an awning that is not made by Fiamma (even though it may look just like a Fiamma), some extra modifications, which are not covered in our installation instructions / video, are required.

As these brackets are designed for Fiamma F45S awnings, we cannot provide any support or assistance in the installation process beyond what our standard instructions / video tutorial covers. We appreciate your understanding and acceptance of these limitations. Thank you.

Installation

The time required to install the brackets and awning is about two to three hours. A Cross Nut setting tool is required for installation of the Chevy/GMC brackets.

All aspects of the installation can be done by one person, except for placing the awning over the brackets. A second person is required for this step.

Please see our very in-depth installation video and other details page.

Shipping Price and Details

Price includes **free shipping** via USPS Priority Mail for US addresses only. For international shipments, please contact us with your shipping address as the shipping rates will be waaaay over-calculated 😱 on the website.

Important note: if you are combining this product with a Swivel Seat Base and / or Stay-Put Bug Screens, there is a system glitch that shows a shipping charge of only <$10.00. This is not correct, and appropriate shipping charges need to be paid before the seat base(s) ships. Before fulfilling your order, we will contact you with the extra amount.

Inventory Status as of April 29, 2025VERY LIMITED

FORD Brackets - We currently have two sets of this product available to be purchased in conjunction with the purchase of a Fiamma Awning.   The Fiamma F45S 10ft Black Case awnings are in stock in Long Beach and San Francisco. 

We are likely NOT going to make more bracket sets unless we can find a new fabricator who can make the brackets reliably to our specifications.  Thank you for your understanding.

CHEVY Brackets - Unfortunately, we are likely discontinuing this product.  If you have interest in fabricating this product, please contact us so we can discuss options! 


These two bracket sets are last two we have, so if you're sitting on the fence about buying, you might want to purchase the brackets and awning soon.

As always for this product, the price includes free shipping! 👏🏼👍🏼

Please reach out with any questions as we may have another solution!

** Must Read Before Purchasing **

Over time, and if the brackets are not properly maintained as depicted in our installation page (especially if exposed to salt water / near beaches, etc.) they will most likely rust as they are made of steel and powder-coated. This is unavoidable as no powder-coating can be fully rust-proof. Thank you for understanding and accepting this reality. We are looking to make these in stainless steel, which will be rust-resistant, but of course, the price will be much higher. Stay tuned...

MUST READ to avoid exorbitant brokerage fees... (click for more info)

Please, please be sure to consult the UPS or USPS website to understand how you can minimize paying exorbitant broker fees (for which we have no control). Each country has different rules, so research accordingly.

Some customers are being charged a whopping 50%😱 of the purchase price in brokerage fees, which are automatically charged by UPS or USPS unless other action is taken by the recipient before the goods are sent by us.

Be advised your package(s) will not be delivered by the carrier until the fees are paid, in total, at the time of delivery. In case you're wondering, we cannot lower the value of the goods.

Before we ship, you will need to inform us of your brokerage firm so we can input that information on the shipping label. If no brokerage information is provided, UPS or USPS will act as the broker, and they charge significantly higher fees than other brokers or if you clear it yourself.

Some excellent information for how to self-clear UPS shipments to Canada can be found here.
