Radio Ear Piece opinions

[Knestis]

Bass Pro Shops have a moldable earplug that is the same as the custom $$$$ molded ones. Just take your foam phones, pull that little center piece out, and get some of that $19 molded earplug stuff and make a pair

who notes that might go past the "how much do you make vs how much time you spend on stuff" mantra

Are you talking about the clear silicone swimmer's ear plug stuff?

I've done one that's similar to the Bass Pro Shops stuff, did that upgrade to my foam ones (which originally came from Shawn/Sampson Racing)... much improved, though I may yet try a re-work of the custom fitment, as one of the ears doesn't seal as well against noise as I'd like. It's just loose in my ear a little - lack of experience fitting, there.

It's basically the same stuff as making custom ear plugs for shooting, etc.

A little late to the party, but I've got the M series of these: http://earplugstore.stores.yahoo.net/chmisearph.html

I figured the price was about the same as the race shops were charging, but they can serve double-duty with my iPod whenever I want. I did have to pick up a stereo --> mono adapter to use them with the in-car radios (which are all wired for mono sound). $5 or so at RadioShack.

They worked perfectly with my radio setup, as well as the not-my-radio setup in the enduro car.
