    Maybe I'm looking in the wrong places, the only kydex I can seem to find comes in 12"x12" sheets or 48"x96" for a lot more money. Anyone found a place to order it in custom sized sheets?

    Measure twice, order once. Ordered the two sheets of 8x12 Kydex from Amazon. Did not measure my Helix 10 and the width is a tad over 12” therefore not enough to make the sides. Reordered a 8x24 piece. Duh.

    It will be awhile before my next order of Kydex arrives. I would also rather purchase something far better than anything I could make so please let me know when you have a solution. Thx, Rickie.

    I found a source but am waiting until Friday to determine if they come in. If so, I will order a few (some for friends) and post the website here for everyone. My larger sheet of Kydex came in but I would rather have a professional visor as I do not trust my finite abilities to make something that does not look like a third grader project.

    They have a distributor in the US, Mariner Direct. They have sunshades/visors for a wide variety of manufacturers and models. Just ordered one for my Garmin Echomap CHIRP 73sv.

    That is who I am waiting for. They are supposed to get the Helix 10 model in tomorrow. They do not have them yet. Thanks.
