i stupidly put my poc ventral in my (soft) check-in luggage when flying to mallorca last week. i arrived and the helmet (<2yrs old) had a significant dent in the side which was obviously quite frustrating
fast forward a week and i'd bought a new ventral (the 'lite' version) which seems great. HOWEVER it doesn't have the really great 'eye garage' rubber grippers on the helmet. the sunglasses still sit in the helmet ok but move around if i bend over and tighten shoes or whatever...
pictured below; grippers on old helmet vs new 'lite' helmet
i see poc sell these grippers so you can retrofit them to the 'lite' helmets (lol) https://www.pocsports.com/products/ventral-lite-eye-garage . but they are obv sold out and would probably be stupidly expensive
my question is - is there some other gripper style rubber tape/stickers i could buy and cut into similar shaped pieces? i have also peeled off the ones from my old helmet but not sure i want to use a powerful adhesive on the new helmet incase i damage it somehow
tl;dr need some sunglasses grippers for new helmet... any elegant solutions available (had a google but most seem like somewhat thick foam for furniture)?
