Removing Canvas

How hard is to remove and then reattach the canvas of a pop-up truck camper?

I just purchased an older Shadow Chaser pop up. The canvas itself is in great shape but the window zippers don't have much life left in them. I can't quite figure out how you would replace the zippers with the canvas in place, so getting tempted to rip it off - repair it - and put back on. Alternative would be maybe finding a creative way to sew on tabs and snaps to bypass the zippers.

Any insight would be awesome!

Are the zipper teeth damaged or worn? Usually it is the puller that spreads out and doesn’t close the teeth together. You can replace the puller without taking all the canvas off, just access the end of the zip.
