I have recently purchased a Westfalia Add-A-Room tent and upon unpacking everything at home I discovered that a few of the poles are missing. Any suggestions on what I should do? I realize that finding some is next to impossible. Please help!!

Post a wanted ad in the parts section and watch E-bay. Good luck, milotype2

what poles do you need. I may be able to help. The corner bent ones that the guy wires attach to are a real pain to find and fix (depending on how bad they are broken)

Dedhed,
I need three corner pieces, one middle connecting piece (kind of a Y connector), and one "leg" (the telescoping piece).

Thanks.

I can come up with some of the telescoping poles for you for sure. The corner pieces are the tough ones. Two of mine broke and I had to repair them. If you know how to weld and bend tubing (or know someone how can) you may be able to take one of my straight ones and fabricate a corner piece out of it. It takes some doing, but it is possible. Let me know.
