Hierarchy

Our new custom bonnet model has to be considered by Sollumz as a valid part, so we have to move the mesh by expanding Adder's armature then drag and drop bonnet's Drawable Model inside adder.mesh

Bonnet part moved into adder.mesh

You can delete the original bonnet, since is not needed anymore.
