If you want a snap on clamp so you don't have to use screws:
Get enough 1" PVC pipe to match the length of your sides & galv. pipe. (PVC gray conduit is UV stabilized & won't get brittle.)
Set up your table saw fence to rip 1/3 of the diameter of the pipe off.
Debur the edges on the 2/3 diameter.
Use this to clamp over the steel pipe with the plastic wrapped around it.
Or you can cut the ripped pipe into 3-4" lengths and space clamps out.

Nolts sells a "roll bar cap" (their ID # GFA5RBC). You use Tec-screws to attach it to the pipe, with the plastic in between. A piece of light-weight aluminum or steel C channel would do the same job, though it wouldn't have the curve in it that the real product has.
