Question Headlight Protection

Does anyone know of a good place to find some headlight protection? I have to tow my 2001 Jeep Cherokee behind RVs and rocks get thrown from the tires and have busted both of my lights. I'm getting ready to put in a set of HID lights and the last thing I want to do is have to replace them. I've seen some different covers, but no one seems to have them in stock anymore.

maybe flaps on your RV's rear wheels? or that skirt looking thing they put on the back bumper?

When I had my RV I put the skirt under my rear bumper. I never towed any of my Jeep with it but I did tow a 72 VW Bug and after all the damage caused by the rocks that is when I installed it. The good thing about putting the skirt is no matter what you tow you don't have to worry about the damage.

You could always pick up some lexan at Home Depot, or lowes.
Tape it on over your lights with some painters tape(green masking tape)
can be removed easily without leaving sticky residue.

The RVs aren't mine, I work for a transport company that delivers the RVs to dealers around the country. I've seen some pictures of some AVS Headlight Covers, but can't seem to find anyone that carries them. AVS says they don't make them for my Jeep anymore either.
