Default Replacement cover for alpha 4?

My Alpha 4 is still chugging along nicely, but the plastic cover that protects the keyboard and LCD screen is getting kind of rough. Does anybody know of some commercially available replacement material?
Thanks
Sam

put a piece of clear plastic over it from like a zip lock bag so that it at least stays in the present condition.

It seems to be made of the same kind of plastic as what covers the keypad on things like microwave ovens. I would think there is something available commercially I'm just now sure where to start looking.

I actually spent some time on Google before posting here. Thanks for the tip. Most of the stuff seems to be for covering computer keyboards, encasing cell phones, and the like. I was hoping to find more of a permanent fix than putting it in a plastic bag. I would think there would be a source for a peice of self adhesive protective plastic film, but it needs to be harder than the stuff they sell to protect books.
