Default Storage options for zip-out windows

OK, I don't feel its smart to leave the windows in the garage when I'm out with the Jeep and the top is off. I know there are certain storage options, and their cost ranges from $60-$80 what I have seen so far. How do you guys do store your zip-out windows? Looking for ideas - Thanks!

I use clover patch roll and keep with when top is still attached to jeep, or stored in garage when top is as well.

Windows stay with top in my opinion.

I did a write up on how I do mine. I think it's easier to use than the store bought options.

I just roll em up and chuck them in the trunk. Sure, they have scuffs on them a plenty, but i couldn't care less and they dont actually break that way.

I never got how people rolled them straight, because there are two perpendicular sides with rigid frames.

I lay them in the rear cargo area under the cargo mat with towels on the bottom, I between each window and on top of them. Seems to keep them in good shape. Prior to doing that I rolled them in towels and placed them under the rear seat.

I roll mine up and tie them loosely with bungie cord, then I lay them in the cargo area. No scratches and no marks.

I use the Bestop window storage roll. It has thin layers of fabric between the windows and is less bulky than the beach towels and Velcro straps I used to use. Does not take up much space in the trunk.

I cut up an old, soft sheet into sections the same size as each window. Then I roll the windows, with the sheet sections between each, and place into a spare folding/sack chair bag I have.
