best awning for VW vans

[Baytown]

I ended up buying an awning from TJM Townsville as they were on special. I forget the name, may be Sun Seeker. 2.5 m and only $280 I think. Obviously not the best available but for the amount of use it will get, it'll do me. I set it up today and it works a treat.
I also purchased a set of 3 Rhino rack Aero bars to mount it on (very nice and great quality Australian product)
Im seriously thinking of a Thule luggage pod so as to keep clutter out of the van when travelling and camping.
As Wardy mentioned, the mounting bars make the awning sit too high, so need to be modified to be in line with the top of the rack bars. Should be simple enough to do with some steel strap drilled, bent and painted accordingly.
Now if some one can point me to a UHF antenna mount that doesn't involve a bull bar, I'd appreciate that! ( like the Police have mounted in front of the windshield scuttle on their T5 vans).

Best wishes all.
