Can't get foam out of Spada Air PRO Jacket???

[highwayrider]

I've been trying to put a RST back protector in my Spada jacket, though the velcro opening is far too small to even get the replaceable foam out. Has anyone had a similar problem? There is just one opening into the back protector compartment and its only about 6 inches wide.

Thanks!

dont know about an rst protector but my forcefield one i had to bend to the point where i though it was going to damage it to get it in.

same size gap aswell by the sounds of it. just takes a lot of fiddling and a bit of cunning to get it in i found.

have you made sure its the right size slot for the back protector?

Any suggestions as I want it in before a 4 hour ride tomorrow.

You'll have to bend / roll the protector to fit it through. If it absolutely won't fit, just cut the lining to enlarge the hole, and then sew it back up if you can be arsed.

Managed to do it. Thought I was going to ruin the jacket though as the opening compartment is way too small. Really decent jacket for the money I think.

I have the same Jacket. I rolled up the protector like a news paper and it went in
