Hi Polar!
The way that I did it was to unscrew the horizontal (hurricane) bracing and cut the sheets to fit inside the panels then reattach the bracing. The Styrofoam panels are approx. 3/4" thick so you will need to cut and fit two in each panel. The fit is snug and the bracing will prevent them from falling out.
