    I published a mod at the Nexus so doing this by hand is not longer necessary.

    If you don't have it already, go to the Nexus and download the "ME3Tweaks Mod Manager" found in this post.

    • Run the "ME3Tweaks Mod Manager" > Tools > Click on "Legendary Explorer (Stable)".
      (This will install and open the "Legendary Explorer".)
    • In the Legendary Explorer > click on "Utilities" > Asset Database.
    • Click on "Database" in the Asset Database menu > choose LE2 > Confirm the creation of the DB.
    • In the Asset Database search for: "HMF_ARM_SHP_DA_R" > Right click on "HMF_ARM_SHP_DA_R" > Open in Meshplorer.
      HMF not HMM
    • In Meshplorer right click in on "709 HMF_ARM_SHP_FBDa_MDL_old" > Export Mesh to UDK > save the UDK to a place of your choice.
    • Click on "706 HMF_ARM_SHP_FBDa_MDL"
      If you zoom to the Visor you should see the screws that aren't suppose to be there.
      (Mouse wheel to Zoom, Middle mouse button to move the picture.)
    • Right click "706 HMF_ARM_SHP_FBDa_MDL" > Replace Mesh from UDK > Navigate to where you saved the "709 HMF_ARM_SHP_FBDa_MDL_old" UDK on your Computer > Select the UDK > Open > Click on the Drop down menu beneath "Select Skeleton Mesh to import" > Select "HMF_ARM_SHP_FBDa_MDL_Old" > Click OK.
      (Now you should see that the screws are gone.)
    • Click on "File" (Meshplorer menu) > Save.

    That's it.

    Edited so that nobody needs to download a file from the internet but can use the original game files.
