I purchased and love to use the clamp kit for ear buds. Unfortunately the plastic tube that receives the ear but plug has bends when ever I remove my helmet and put it on my motorcycle seat. It has now broken the connecting plastic, but it still works, for now. I am sure this is going to fail soon when the wires break. I would like to see the connector changed or moved so this won't happen. I have attqached photos of the break and the reason it breaks. I recomment moving the plug so it is not forced to bend when the the helmet is placed on the motorcycle seat or other flat surface. Thanks, Scott

  I'm sure there's a British equivalent to Digi-Key, etc. And, of course, there's always eBay...

  IIRC, the screws for the SMH-10 base require a Torx driver - #5? #8? Probably #5. Use a Torx driver - a hex key may or may not work. If it doesn't work, the screw head could chewed up to the point where a Torx bit won't work, either. Not Good.

  The 2 machine screws that hold the clamp are hex keys, and the 4 screws under the rubber pad are definitely phillips, I just had one open the other night.

  I had a £30 voucher so it's costing me a little over £11 for a new clamp kit, so this seems like a good option to fixing it :-)

  I still might have a go at the old one, just to see.
