> I have heard that you could warm it with a heat gun

This is what I did. I installed the tent with top on so chose a cold
time of year to do so. This made it nearly impossible to punch the
staples through. Heat gun on low setting really helped soften the
plastic but too much heat would cause the plastic to malform. In
hindsight, I'd use a strip of wood in lieu of the OE plastic. ......
assuming that's feasible.
