    Default Helix Sunshades


    I've got a Helix 10 & 12. I can't seem to find a sunshade for them anywhere, anyone know a source or have made their own?

    I saw somewhere that kydex was used to make one. Can't remember where it was. Been meaning to do this for my garmins.

    Here is one way to make one. A quick online search for kydex, it looks like you can make pistol holsters with it also.

    I'm sure some of my existing da cover holdit™ models would work for HELIX ...

    The challenge is trying to find a glue that will bond the da cover holdit™ aluminum arms to the HB rubber covers ...

    I am researching ...

    Too darn late. Just ordered the Kydex on Amazon, bought some combat scissors, and a long length of Velcro. Already have the heat gun. I may not be able to read and understand my fancy Helix 10 but I will be able to see it in the sunlight (smile).
