I've been fiddling around with this issue for a couple of weeks now and I've finally conceded defeat. I've been trying to find a way of attaching my Bolle X800i style goggles to my fast helmet but I don't want to start cutting the straps for something I don't know will work. I've already got my mesh face mask attached to the included swivel attachments so rail space on the side of the helmet is a bit limited. Any ideas or advice? Feel free to post photos of your helmet setups ( unless they're really expensive ones cos I ain't got that kind of money).

i took the strap on mine and mounted to fma swivel clips and fitted these to the side rails. easy to just unclip when you dont need them on.will take a photo and post when i get chance tomorrow.

I use 'bunny ear'/goggle retention straps.

I considered the swivel clips in the past, but I'm not sure they'd be bb proof, so it's not a risk I'd be willing to take.

 

I cut the strap on some ESS goggles, sewed on some velcro and have used that successfully for years on a MICH helmet. I'd suggest that, or the bunny ears and a longer strap.

always wondered how they attached :)

 

with my FAST helmet i just have the bullet ant goggles running through swivel clips then fixed with the weight pouch you fit to the back for added security

 

normally though i just wear my Revision locusts over the top or under the helmet as best i can...so last thing i take off if possible

Could do with a longer strap, sounds like i need to get the missus to do some sowing velcro on! :lol::lol::lol::lol:
