Default Hatch Glass ideas?

Last light I shattered my rear glass and before going and buying another window I was wondering if anyone has any other ideas instead of replacing it since driving without it in the summer is pretty cool and it's something I don't have to worry about breaking again. any and all ideas are welcome!!

lexan, mylar, (not prone to chip or crack), or duct tape (you make it fit one strip at a time.

Lexan is a nightmare on the streets,It will scratch easy and get cloudy over time with the sun on it.And you have to run a support strip or two down the middle of a window that size.

Well the dude that broke is is buying me another glass but later down the road I'm going with plexi. I hate the idea of having glass shatter all over the trail and in the cab.
