Moded Spirit Goggles

Modded the Spirit goggles to look more like the real ones. I used button snaps from Amazon, knobs from gbfans shop, sticker set from Independent1Trading on etsy, and sewed my own strap mounts. (Not very well though)

I cut a piece of aluminum to make the lens screw bracket.(Front left lens) Couldn't find longer thumb screws but close enough.

I replaced the green led in the lens and added one to the other lens. Dimmed them down so I didn't go blind. I used plastic card and filler to make the raised ring on the front.

I built a different battery door(the round one) to look more realistic and used a mini push button for the switch. Might mod this to look like the real push/pull switch later.

Added a flashing led for effect and to indicate power.

Ebay. I believe they were 4mx8. Just looked and you can get them on Amazon. Search for Toolless Thumb Screws.

Finally got around to designing and printing the pull knob. Finally finished the goggles. It's bigger than I wanted but had to work with the switch I installed.

I made a 3d model for printing based off of the actual knob used if you want to use it.

Nice. I'll see if I can make it work with my switch. Thanks.
