How many styles and sizes of ski goggles are there compared to helmets though? Gear retailers have a hard enough time selling all the varying graphics each year, much less adding the option of HUD.
What graphics do you match the HUD with to satisfy demand? How much will it impact R&D costs to have one included as OEM? The risk and development cost impact of selling HUD aftermarket is much smaller.
