spookymufu Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 I dont think the headband fits in it, not easily anyway, you might have to get creative in attaching it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southscout Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I've just gotten a headband and started to look on how to get it to fit. I think the headband needs to be put at an angle first, the back being lower than the front. I will also probability remove the two plastic thingies on the top. Then I will see if I can drill new holes for the bolts, or rivet/glue it in place. Something like that. Just think on it and then get all ghetto over it..

Southscout Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 If anyone looks, this is how I ended up doing it. Velcro, sweet velcro: And then headband with corresponding velcro. Note that the top strap sits at an angle. Skickat från min LG-D802 via Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldenrod Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Patrik, thats a lonewolf bucket right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theisaac Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 I couldn't get the bolts to line up with my Altmann or CB helmet either. I ended up doing what Patrick did and used velcro. I know the RS helmet is said to have the headband functionality in them. I've yet to see someone use the bolts and headband together and make it work.

Mandalorean Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I cut the brow of the headband and made it smaller so the bolt holes lined up. Then simply stapled the brow back together and re wraped the foam around it. I also trimmed a bit of the over head adjustable strap so that could be made smaller too. Worked in both my LW and Chef buckets. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southscout Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Patrik, thats a lonewolf bucket right? Yes.... And it's miiiiiine.... Edit: but I think I'm going to look into what Mandalorean did. I had a major malfunction during the weekend (after two hours of non stop trooping) when the velcro came loose and the helmet fell down on my head... Looked like a drunk scout...
