Size 59 or 60 Helmet liner in size 64 shell?

Hello, I recently purchased a post war german manufactured Finnish helmet and it is too small for me. The shell is 64 and the liner is 58. Is there any way I could remove the liner and replace it with a size 59 or 60 liner? And if not would anyone want to trade?

There's no way to fit a larger size liner band into a smaller bowel size helmet shell...
I can't help on the trade.... you'd be better off asking in the reenactment section.... but the larger sizes always demand a "premium" over the smaller sizes when talking anything other than an original helmet.

It already has the wrong size liner. A 58 liner should be in a 66 shell.
