I know the awning through the roof thing as well. My fix..... A piece of plexiglass about 3 or 4 inches bigger than the affected area. I filled the hole with clear silicone, and put a fat bead of silicone around the plexiglass about 1/2 inch in the from the edges. Then I placed that directly over the hole, and weighted it down with enough pressure to squish the silicone out along the edges of plexi, and I fingered a nice radius on it and let it dry.It wasn't very noticeable, and it held strong. I had the pup for about 12 years after doing this, and never had to do anything more to that patch job. Cheap, functional, and durable.
