Polarised pinlocks?

[crossy67]

I have a dark tinted visor (legal where I live) but still get blinded by glare and find it a pain having to carry two visors on a fully loaded bike for when it gets dark. I used to ware my sunglasses but my new helmet is a tighter fit so I can't get the arms down the side of my head so I'm wondering if anyone makes a polarised tinted pinlock to go on my helmet.

Any one know if such things exist?

My new helmet's an HJC, one of their more expensive ones. Really happy with the helmet apart from it fitting so well I can't squeeze my old specs down the side of me fat head. Last year we went touring with my old helmet and I used to ride with the visor up or off and my glasses on when the roads were quieter.

Another option would be to wear two tinted monacles.

I say, what a jolly good idea

I've been faffing in the garage. I have taken one of my old but well loved pair of polarised glasses and broken the arms off them, they kept on snapping any way and wer more super glue than glasses. I've cut some copper tube up and made thin strips that just sit on my ears and soldered them onto the old hinge. I then covered them in heat shrink and bent them to fit just nice. I can now use my favorite glasses with my helmet on. I'll post a picture of them when I can figure out how to get photos off my phone.

It's more the polarised rather than the tine I'm after. My tinted visor is a pain in low sun, especially going into wooded areas.
