I believe any of the Dometic case awnings would work for that 'original' look (as much as possible).

Another option would be one of the awnings that is just fabric and poles - you slide the fabric into the rail, then use the poles and ropes to tether it in place. Upside - cheaper. Downside - much harder to put up and take down, plus you have to store it someplace.

I wrote this post a while back on this very topic. I just updated the links in the post.

Both of these assume you have the awning rail in place on your B190. If not, you'll need that for either solution. I don't know how hard that would be to install.
