Oh, nice Ear lights!

[Crank729]

What are those things called that you bought for your ear lights?

[Teese]

Those are led chasers. You can find them on eBay.

Helmet looks great! Surprisingly similar to mine lol.

double post fail

Teese is right, those are the LED chaser you find on ebay. I bought this Kit: http://www.ebay.com/itm/8-LED-Chaser...#ht_1472wt_906 but just from an other seller

Edit: problem one is solved with the help of FireWire

Should I cut the ears this way like tekparasite:

or leave it like it is now?

[Crank729]

No, leave the ears like that. It prevents the helmet from warping out of shape.

Thanks Crank, thats exactly what i thought. Now I'll get a new visor from FireWire which doesn't need heat to bend-very nice
