I have done 2 of these now. The 1st plexiglas, the 2nd one Lexan. Lexan is better even if there some low level of UV concern which was raised.
Here is the "How To" post complete with pics of the process and materials used
Lexan Screen Door Panel Mod 101 (Lots of pics and long)
This is hands down an outstanding mod to do, for all 4 seasons.
I went the screen clips route to attach approach.
The added light it lets in and to see out is the main benefit. It is hard to explain why, just once you do it, going back to not having it is really hard. Sort of like having a power tongue jack. I did this mod on our prior camper, then we sold it and had to survive a while on the new camper without one and hands down, it is a good mod to do. Complete with DW approval! Or listen to "When are you going to get that clear panel back on the camper door..."
I'm surprised the RV industry has not picked up on this as a selling feature and offer it as standard when new.
Hope this helps
