Many have used sail slugs and others have sewn a bolt rope into a tarp. Both work well. I think the keder rail on newer pods is 15mm, but someone else can answer this more definitively. I do know that 1/4" sail slugs work on our 2016 179.

I just purchased a 2017 r pod 179, and opted out of the r dome. I'm seeing a lot of pictures of interesting options for an awning, but can't find information on the size of the inside of the rail that the dome would slide into. Does anyone know? I'm thinking sail slugs or a rope the right size would slide through the rail and hold on a tarp of some sort nicely. Called Forrest River and was told that it was 1.5", which doesn't even look close. Any help is GREATLY appreciated!!!
