What Do You Use To Hold Your Mic Besides Tape?

My mic and all of the wiring is behind the cheek pad so it gets held in place by that. then on the outside of my helmet I have some tape holding the remainder so it doesn't flop in the wind. When the camera is off the helmet I just tuck the male end under the liner.
I have very little wire exposed on the outside of the helmet. The last thing I want is a tree snagging it.

I don't have any really - I pulled out my entire insides of my helmet and have it all in between the shell and soft insert.

So i've had to put my mic inside the cheek pad. I cut a little gap at the bottom and moved it up in there. I'll probably do the same for both helmets. The drift camera REALLY fucking needs one lower mic sensitivity level. It's still clipping a bit, but not terrible. now i'll just wait for them to come out with a firmware to fix the issue......

If it's an HD Ghost, 2.4.4.0 some say is better for level, although I can't say I noticed, but definitely worth checking it is set to one bar in the menu, maybe set it to 3 then reset it to one to make sure it is on it?
I got a high pitched whine on mine when I upgraded FYI, but if you want to try it, I have 2.1.6.4 if you want to go back to a stable release.

I use flexible epoxy + 3M Dual Lock. The mic is epoxied to one piece of the Dual lock, and the other piece is stuck in my helmet just past my left cheekpad to the left of my mouth.
This way I can move it around and have it stay fixed exactly where I position it. It's also easy to remove if I ever need to.

I have the massive 3350 cable nicely managed but need to get the mic wire that runs from the cheek pad to the front vent tidied up. Electrical tape has worked well but I want a more permanent solution

I use really strong velcro from my old job which was in the sign industry. So industrial strength velcro, works for tons of stuff.

i used to work in the sign industry, so i have a bunch of industrial strength velco.. works for sooooo much stuff you'd be surprised.
It has a very strong adhesive on the back, this isnt just arts and crafts velco, make sure it's heavy duty.

Since I lost the microphone clip, instead of clipping it to the chin air guard thingy.. I just sqeeuze the mic between the cheekpads.

My helmet has removable padding, so just clipped it out, ran the mic to where I wanted it to be, and clipped it back in. Has worked ever since.
