Default Need oversized fork bag for project

I recently bought an amp and some small speakers for the sporty and have been looking for a bag big enough to mount them in. I really want to put them in a windshield/fork bag to hide everything. The problem I am running into is finding a bag that is approximately 13x5x5. I have looked all over the net. Anyone have any ideas as to where i can find a bag that big? TIA, Evan

I think you are going to have trouble finding a fork bag that size. However I have these two options

i make my fork bag stereos with a stock harley bag man, it is only 8 in long and works great! i use 3 1/4 speakers that fit in there but are a bit tricky to find the right speaker to handle the RMS of the amp... took me a while but they are out there... you want it tight! if not it will jumble around int here as you ride and short out...

I have found bags that are close and I measured everything large so I could go smaller about an inch each way and still have room for everything. I just wanted to make sure the amp got enough air to keep it cool. I guess I could cut some louvres out of the leather to allow for air flow. The speakers are waterproof but the amp is not so I would have to be careful about that.
