Default Storage bag for HD windshield.

so as autumn starts to fade.... and storage enters my mind i was wondering if anyone knows of an economical bag for storing my HD windshield. i know HD makes one but it, as with many other products they brand is pricey. anyone know of any aftermarket bags or other options to protect the lexan?
