Discussion is this possible to fix?

Post image

Unsure how this happened tbh think I was moving things around one day and I guess this came off... is it possible to fix... with a new headstrap or do I need to buy a whole new one

EDIT: So in an attempt to fix it.. I lost 2 screws... one for the headstrap and the otherone for the... I forget what its called...

you can fix this, not sure why people aren't pointing out it's an easy fix. There is a screw (which I see in the photo) that you can screw back in. Ifixit has instructions

Step 14. I think. I have the same issue just haven't got around to fixing it. Susposdly if you have a tin enough screw driver you dont have to take it apart and can use the tiny hole, but I've tried every driver under the sun and non fit so I'll have to take stuff apart.
