Hi,
Does anyone know where I can purchase small clamps that I can put on the roof gutter of our Mitzi L300 ?
I am planning to run a tarp out from the roof gutter to form an anex.
Thanks in advance
Adam

Maybe fishing rod holders, otherwise a couple of roof bars, or just one at the back then run the tarp over the rear.

Couple of ideas. You can get pack of plastic spring loaded clamps, rather like big pegs from cheap stores. They might work. You can even get very small G-clamps. If you are brave enough actually drill holes in the gutter and make hooks that go through them. As long as the holes aren't above doors... they don really matter.

Sorry mate
You'd have to be VERY brave to drill holes in the gutter as in most vehicles the gutter is a double panel spot welded and drip-checked (roof to gutter strip). Any holes will let water into the double skin and ... you know what!
Although, if the L300 is a dunger it probably wouldn't matter too much.
If it isn't, then the roof rack carry bars are probably the go if he can't find some small clamps.
