How to install Index's Knuckles Lanyards?

[cate]

How? Oddly I can't find any help on how to install them, and I don't understand how they could be installed.
I probably wouldn't use them but I want to know how to use them, and also if I don't mind wearing them, might as well for some added safety.

You just put your hand around the controller and pull it to strap your hand in.

Nah I'm not talking about the knuckles strap, but the optional lanyards; what's seen on the vive wands: little bits of rope you put around your wrist so if somehow you let your controller(s) fall, they will not fall to the ground thanks to the rope.

Just put the around the bottom part of the controller handle.

But it seems a bit useless, I've been using the knuckles for a year now and I cant imagine how you would drop them, throw them or anything really. It fits great and says no problem.

Just put it arround the central body and insert the cord in to the loop. Easy.

Yeah you could always tie them around like in the image shared above. Not sure why you'd need them though. The normal straps hold the controllers pretty snug so you can "let go" and they stay in your hand. I've never felt like they're going to slip off.

OH! Never thought you just put the rope itself around the base, and didn't think putting it though the hole would be the intended way.
Welp cheers; probably will never use them
