    Which gas mask did you get? There is a specific model that fits the lights correctly.

    The one i have is a size 2. The eyes are also cut out of it. There is kind of a lip on the inside. You want to cut around that ring so its just a layer of the rubber that will stretch over the lenses.

    Yup. You need to cut more... this is what it should look like.. the size #1 is the largest I believe.. I had a 1 and I had to trim quite a bit.. so the #2 is smaller.. just work with it and trim a little at a time... looks awesome when done correctly..

    Mine is a size 2. I cut out the inner lip that would seal to your face and it stretched much easier, but did not cut around the eyes at all

    Hey Rayman,

    I have fitted a size 2 mask to my XB and did the same as you, just snapped off the lenses without any cutting of the eye part.

    I found it easier to take the lights off the bike at first and just manhandle it over the lenses, it is tight but it will go. I haven't ridden with them on yet but after a couple of days they stay put, I did have to adjust them for a couple of mornings at first, they would slip off the bottom.

    Hope this helps, Mark.
