The zipper on my awning bag went bad and I don t have time to get it fixed between trips so I purchased a pack of Crocodile Clips to keep my bag closed. They work great. The clip has a collar that slides along the clip and locks in place so the clip can not open. You have to push a button to open the clip. I found them at Wal-Mart where the towing stuff is. 4 in a pack. Here is a link for them.

tlhdocYa know, I have some of those and was thinking of using them on my PopUpGizmos bunk end covers instead of the orange clips that appear to be rusting a bit. I wasn t sure how well they would hold or if they are a pain. If they hold your awning bag closed, I think they can handle the bunk covers!
I guess I ll have to give them a try on our next trip to Raystown lake in 1.5 weeks! [:D]
tlhdocI have some of those in my tool box. I replaced the Popup Gizmos clips with bigger ones as the Gismos blew off in high wind. I end up using 5 of the bigger clips on each Gismos. I also stapled Velco to the inside of the roof and put the opposite side on the Gizmos. It was pressure sensitive Velco, but I needed to staple it to the roof with 1/4" staples, as it kept coming off. It really speeds up the set up.
