Here you go, here's a modded headinclude.

I can see your confusion as the mod instructions and code variables are different.

Make sure you backup the original headinclude.

It appears this mod will work on 3.7.x as well as 3.8.x
 
many than ks for this.. I am installing it now and test it! I will provide feedback about its working!
