It was a year ago or so that I purchased a HANS device. The vendors said that
they were certified installers. So, I brought my helmet and such to them.
Whereupon they inspected my helmet closer than I had. There appeared to be a
very small line just above the face shield that for all intents looked just
like a scratch. I didn't see it until he showed it to me. Even then we used a
magnifying glass. Sure enough the helmet was cracked. He would not install
the Hans device until I got a new helmet. Fortunately, I already had a brand
new in the box SA2000 with me. I kept hoping that I didn't have to use this
helmet right away. I suppose this is TR mentality just ---use the parts until
they are really used up and useles..
The point is that here I was spending a large chunck of change on this HANS
device and not inspecting my helmet enough to realize that it was trash. Thank
goodness for young eyes.
