STEP 1: Wrapping the headband around the Phone Holder
STEP 1: Wrapping the headband around the Phone Holder

2. Take the small loop and wrap it around the phone holder, between the cradle and vent grip.
3. Pull the headwrap up so that it is securely attached to the vent .
STEP 2: Attaching the Phone Holder
STEP 2: Attaching the Phone Holder
1. Begin pushing the phone holder onto the brim of the cap. This may be difficult depending on how thick the brim is.
2. Leave a small gap between the phone holder and the brim.
3. Thread a head wrap (preferably one with a rubber texture) through the gap and pull half of the head wrap through.
4. Push the phone holder all the way onto the brim
STEP 3: Securing the Phone Holder
STEP 3: Securing the Phone Holder
1. Rotate the phone holder 90 degrees so that you can insert your phone sideways. Secure your phone by taking each half of the second headwrap (rubber) and stretching them around each side of your phone.
2. Take the first headwrap (flat) that you worked with and pull one side of it tightly underneath the cap's button
3. Wrap the headwrap tightly around the cap's button twice so that it is securely fastened to the top of the cap. This will help ensure the phone holder doesn't fall off your cap
STEP 4: Adding the Battery Bank
STEP 4: Adding the Battery Bank
1. Take a child's sock and cut straight across, under the heel, resulting in a pouch. cut a very small hole in the toe of the sock where your charging cord will meet your battery bank. The hole will stretch alot.
2. Line up the sock pouch on the cap and sew the sides of the sock to the cap. If you don't have a needle and thread, you can use a stapler.
3. Insert the charging cable into the pouch and guide the charging end through the small hole on the bottom. attach the cable to your phone and then your battery bank. Insert the bank into the sock so that it is secure.
