My 332 has the 10' awning back by the garage, should be close as most of the new Raptors all have pretty much the same 12' garage. At least when I was looking all the model unless there was a half bath looked the same in the garage area.

The Raptor 375's and Carbon 357's have 11' garages...I am just wanting to make sure when I add this awning I hit the alum wall studs. I did contact Keystone and asked them, I got a nice canned email back stating that any modifications to the unit could void my warranty and no dimension info. I have the Raptor/Carbon SE Sales Rep's number, I am going to give him a call.

I'm curious about this too. I'd like to be able to mount wooden runners in the garage (for non-load items) - I assume you drill through to high the aluminum frame with appropriate depth self-tapping sheet metal screws?
I'd love to hear experienced voices...

You might be able to use a stud finder on the inside and use that measurement for where to mark and mount on the outside?

Yes, I'm told that they're inductive and will work.. I just want references of people who have done it successfully!

That is very cool....but a lot of $$. I had already tried my cheap Ricor stud finder when I was mounting the garage TV and no dice. I wonder if my local Home Depot rents those scanners.

On a cool, damp/dewey morning, you will see the outline of the aluminum studs/frame on the filon. Measure where the studs are (or make small erasable marks for later reference) and then transfer the measurements to the inside.
I would suggest using a very small bit to make sure the stud is there.
