I purchased an x-caliber glove a few years ago and would like to know if it's possible to take the release part off and install it on a hurricane bucklewrist strap?

I really do not feel like dropping $79 for a new release when the new one looks like mine with the buckle strap. It doesn't seem like it would be that difficult.

Has anyone else done something like this? Also, where can I find the straps?
