When are awnings not the best solution for shade?

There are two types of Fiamma mounts for the feet, an old and a new style. Unfortunately, the old style are far superior to the new style. I originally installed the newer style but they started to freeze up and eventually broke.

Thanks. Of those in pictures I saw, I like the concept of brackets that come out from under the van best. I'm not sure how I would feel about mounting the brackets through the side of a new van's body.

I have to admit that these van-specific compact awnings look smaller in pictures than I would have thought.
