USCM Helmet Earpiece Fix Instructional video for the Ear Piece/Ear Flap droop fix USMC Bootbands are available on base, or surplus stores USCM Helmet available from Spat Cave Studios
I'd like to show the rest of my modifications, but I can't since my armor was stolen. There's another modification that I did where I put straps and buckles into my ab-pad and chest piece. So that the ab-pad snaps into the chest piece, and there's still plenty of mobility. This prevents the common problem of the ab-pad from flopping out, or dragging too low. On the armor, the shoulders tend to droop. So I fixed that by putting an additional rivet into the pieces, much like is in the movie.
@@marktodd6187 If I could get my hands on another set, I could do all the modifications all over again, and also record them as guides for the internet. For Alex ('AlexPlaysVideoGamez') he bought a set of Golden Armor, which was a fiasco. I rivetted the belt to the Ab-pad, since the Ap-pad was rubber. Nothing would stick to it... and it was really heavy, so if I connected it to the armor, it would pull everything down. Being mounted to the belt put all the weight on the hips. If I get another set of Spar armor, I might do that again.
Excellent easy fix! Thank you so much. I'm just starting my build.

@@AaronHorrocks The chest/ab-pad mod will be super helpful. Sorry your armor was stolen man. Was this fairly recent?
