kingjames23rulz 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2007 I have a white Bauer 5000. I want to drill new holes in spots like a RBK helmet. The holes are for where you have to snap your cage to ur helmet. Any help on how to drill the holes or if it will work? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trevor13478 1 Report post Posted June 8, 2007 i don't see why it wouldn't work, i can't really comment on how it would affect the durability but i would assume it wouldn't be all that good for it. This would also without a doubt void any warranty on the helmet if you are concerned about that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ngo_35 1 Report post Posted June 9, 2007 If you want it tight then move the clips close to the cage.But if you really insist on drilling for for it. Maybe use a smaller drill bit and work your way up until a post will fit. But you will void the certification so I dont recommend it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
