cut the straps off, stick the mount down with velcro or a double sided tape?

:thumbup:

Here one I made earlier. Cut the bottom off so it flat against lid. As you going from hole to hole your need longer velcro strap Wilkinsons sell that kind of thing.
My P7 did't fit in the Xposure joystick after sticking elastic band round light was on a matter of time till light fell out.
Your T6 maybe different.

I've got this mount for my urge helmet, its absusute rubbish in standard form so i got a bit blue peter on its ass. Cut the leather bits off, thread one of the velcro straps through and under where the torch sits to mount it on the two holes at the front of the helmet. Next use the last strap to thread through the top slots of the torch mount and thread through the two holes in the back of the helmet. The velcro is sort of double sided so attaches to itself. Makes a "T" shape if that makes sence, had no problem with it moving.

I did exactly the same and it works a treat.
