I'm wondering the same thing, as I damaged mine by  misshandling. To date, based on previous posts, I assume Todd's may be the best  source. And, as a warning to others who may be prone to be as careless as I can  be - I found the canopy to be more fragile than I expected. I unrolled the  canopy fearing that it might tend to take a set if rolled too long a time, and  temporarly draped it over the top of a chest freezer. Later I opened the freezer  lid several times without removing the canopy, and now I find a crack where a  freezer lid corner contacted the canopy. I've learned two things: First, the  canopy is more soft and flexible than one might expect and thereby not very  prone to take an undesireable set if left rolled until ready to use. And  secondly, the soft flexibility is decieving in that it actually is more brittle  than one might suspect. I guess I should be glad to have learned this before  investing a lot of labor into fitting the canopy.

<?xml:namespace prefix="v" /><?xml:namespace prefix="o" /><![endif]-->  Try Todd's Canopies, in Ft Lauderdale. 954-579-0874.  He's easy to  work with, and turnaround time is good. My first canopy was $350, modified for  taller people, 1/8th thick and tinted. My second was a thinner (lighter) canopy  he's making for the European market, where they're more weight conscious. They  ran  considerably less, and if you can stand a minor optical flaw, he may  have some real bargains.  But shipping is a bear. Back in June of 2006, it  was $48, in Feb of 07, it was $117. Canopy #2, the unmodified, dropped right in.  Don't ask me how I know about replacement canopies.  He'll also mark front  and back. (nice touch)
