Well I would say that if you can not take the screen out as a unit, then you will have to replace the screens in place if you can find the rubber that's inserted to hold the screen in place. Hopefully you can get the old screen out in one piece and use it as a pattern to cut the new ones and re-insert them. FYI inexpensive repair kits on Amazon. Mike

Do you have sliding screens?
Not sure if yours are the same as mine (82 3607 AC), but I have 4 sliding screens in mine. I was able to lift it up and pull the bottom out. On two, I had to wedge the rail up every so slightly (probably 1/32" or less) to get enough clearance.
