Unfortunately they are as rare as hen’s teeth.

Coert,are you referring to these items? I can find the hardware, and I can make the leather for the belt.

Yes, I am referring to those items Woitek! If you could help me out with a chinstrap, I would be eternally grateful!
They are very rare to find, as Matthew stated.
Regards, Coert.

Sure John, here are the photo's of the helmet I need the chinstrap for:
As soon as Woitek is ready with the strap, and it has arrived at my place, I will post pictures of it on the haube.
I am extremely happy with the help of Woitek with this!
Best regards, Coert.

Sandy, Woitek used original Neu silber hardware, and leather from the era to make it. I have more pictures, it is like it should be, correct stitching and so forth. Most of us saw Woitek restoring helmets, bringing them back from a state from which I thought rescuing was impossible.Wojtek, did you make it or is it an original part? It looks really great
But he did succeed in a way, I cannot do. I am very happy with it, most of us would think it's totally original. And in a way, it is.
Correct fittings, correct leather strap and stitching.
These are very rare to find, so Woitek's work is amazing.
I am really happy, and eternally grateful with what he has accomplished for me!
Finally, my Pionier M95 can be complete!
Best regards, Coert.
