I recently purchased a couple of PVS5A frames. I think I have almost everything I need for the conversion, but I do have a several questions. I was hoping to get some ideas with them.
What's the best, least destructive way of removing the top snap so I can install the metal d-ring?
What are the most accurate rivets to use on the head strap, tying it to the d-ring?
What should I use to create a battery cap harness? Or does someone know of a source where I can buy real ones?
When connecting the head strap to the ladder buckle, does the top just loop around the side straps, or do the side straps go into ladder buckle as well?
If I wanted to make GB2 ecto goggles, are the lenses the same dimensions as GB1 lenses?
The extra items added to the GB2 goggles (the center "gear", and the treading on the left lense), does somebody know their source? Is there something wrapped around the right lense, or is that just glue?
For those looking for thumb screws, McMaster-Carr sells some. I purchased ones where the thread length is 1/2" and the head height is 1/2" X 1/4". It looked about right to me.
Thanks.
