Default Has anyone bought the earbud adaptor from plugup.com?

It appears to be just what I'm looking for for my wife, she wants to use earbuds instead of headset speakers on our Road Glide Ultra but still have Mic capabilities with the intercom. I called and left a msg, called several times today and they never answer the phone. I went ahead and placed the order because I need it late next week I hope it does what I want it to do. Do i just cut off the Harley headset speakers?

TIA

My wife and I both used them for a couple of years before I to switched EdSets headsets. The adapters worked as advertised.

I ran the ear bud cord through the coiled cord to keep it all neat.

You should be able to unplug the speakers from the harness inside the helmet and just remove them.

Thanks, right now we have the headset that came with the bike which doesn't work on a half helmet. I'm not sure if those speakers unplug or if I will have to cut them. I placed the order just before 10 last night and by 10:15 had a shipping confirmation with tracking number. So even though they don't answer their phone, they are quick on shipping.

If there aren't any plugs you can safely cut them off. Just make sure to tape the ends so the don't short together.
