Todd's canopies may be cheaper, are said to be thicker and have more tint options than Vans.
Sikaflex is a pretty common way to install these without drilling holes in them. If you can handle a caulk gun, you can handle the sika. Will have to modify your skirt if you change canopies or mounting methods though....and that can be extensive glass work. I have a Todds canopy, sikaflexed on....and Vans skirt fit like high heels on a horse.
Sorry to hear of your loss.
