The Boards are right. All cuirassier regiments had a white underlay till 1915. 1915 came a second colour.

But you need Boards to slip on, not to sew in.

I looked even more closely at the tunic and I have to say that the passantene was here, I found the remains of the thread in the place where they were sewn, the thread is identical to the one with which these little loops are sewn on the outside. Unfortunately, someone removed them. It will probably be impossible to find them, so I will try to reconstruct them one day. Just please confirm to me that these epaulets are correct and what degree it is. I will also have a small request to "kuerassier", sorry, I do not know Your name, I see that you have a gorget of this regiment, I also have one, but I am not sure if it is original, so I will need a photo of yours for comparison. I'll post a few photos of this gorget later, as well as other "gadgets" that I think are related to KR2, if of course you are not bored with this topic yet.
Paweł do you mean the bottom of the shoulder boards? That is where those shoulder boards were sewn into a uniform shoulder seam. Proper slip-on boards for your Waffenrock would be rolled over at the bottom.
