Do I need an adapter for my Light Base or Family Base annex?
1. Check your serial number. You'll find it inside your Roof Space case – open the side lid and look at the bottom right, next to the gas struts.
2. For Roof Space 2 roof top tents with serial numbers from RS230001 to RS240112, please choose the "with adapter" option.
For the Roof Space 4 you need no adapter.
