Where to get new westy roof canvass

[VWAIRCOOLED]

I'm in the need of a new roof canvass for my Westy '71 front hinged roof.I've seen them on Just Kampers for just £149 http://shop.justkampers.com/product_info.php/cPath/1_32_232/products_id/13681

Has anyone tried to fit one of these before or one from anywhere else? Is it a straight forward job to do? :?

I've got one on my '68 and it ain't bad, quite easy to fit. I have found that water can collect around the zips and the cloth is a bit thin so it billows inside the bus when driving along. Get your self a big sturdy staple gun, IIRC we used 14mm staples. A friend did one on his bus and he didn't use big enough staples and they kept of dropping out.

campershop.co.uk is another supplier although much more expensive.
