The HD Nomadic 180 in the universal configuration — the version to buy if you are fitting one for the first time rather than replacing a canopy you already own.

The 180 opens to a half circle, shading the side of the vehicle and wrapping around the rear corner to the tailgate. It is the middle ground in the Nomadic range: more coverage than a straight awning, lighter and shorter than a 270, and it leaves rack space for a tent.

What "universal" means here: this listing is the awning together with the HD Nomadic bracket kit for the 270 and 180. That is the whole difference between this and the cheaper awning-only listing, which ships with no brackets, hardware or accessories. If you are mounting an awning for the first time, this is the one you want — the awning-only version is for people who already have Nomadic brackets on the rack.

Grey body with green trim and a black travel bag.

Opened, the 180 shades up to 88 square feet — the side of the vehicle and around the rear corner.

Fabric and warranty: 280G ripstop poly-cotton oxford with a 3500 PU waterproof rating. HD carries a 4 year fabric warranty and a 4 year structural warranty.
