We have purchased a GW tent to replace our worn out tent. I cannot find a video on the GW Youtube page on how to install tips etc.
Wondering if anyone out there has done this and can offer tips. I am pretty sure it is a screw in tent, so far I think we need clear exterior silicone seal.
I would really appreciate any other real life tips and tricks someone can offer. We love our 1999 VW Eurovan "Milo" and want to do a great job! |

I believe the install might be different if you have the EV Camper or EV Weekender. For our install of a new GoWesty tent for the EV Camper, we followed this set of instructions.

Yes, the worse part was removing the old silicone
