    On to the pictures.





    Just insert tab into latch on helmet.



    Release by pushing down on the top button or pull the small lanyard. I wouldn't use the small lanyard though since the metal ring is pretty thin.



    Kit also comes with other d-rings to make the device non-removable and all the tools you need to install the latch or adjust the angle. Carrying case, baseball cap, stickers and uniform patch also included.

    Good stuff. I was within days of pulling the trigger on a Rage Hybride but this looks much less complicated to get into. Couple questions. How difficult/easy is it to clip into? How is the comfort against the seat back? Will you be able to get into the car and then put it on? Does it mount into existing HANs anchor points?

    Thank!!
