This may be more hassle than it's worth, but you could remove the poptop
canvas and take it to one of those canvas/tent repair places you can find in
the yellow pages.  They could probably sew in a new screen no problem.
While you are at it, they could probably add a couple of side vents for you.
Swing it on by one of those places before you removed it and get a quote for
the work.  Then you could decide whether or not it better/cheaper to go that
route vs. ordering a new 3-sided screen from Bus Depot or another vendor.
