Default Ear Plugs/ Custom

I've just bought a set of 'do it yourself' ear plugs off evilbay, and TBH out of the 4 attempts, I made 4 failures. Now instead of wasting £7 each time. I was wondering does anyone know where I can go to get them done?

Thanks

These guys are more local. Bolton.

Usually have a stall at the local shows and usually have show discount price.
Was at Manchester motorcycle show last month and will likely be at Thundersprint in Northwich in May.

I do, I got my ear impressions done at a bike show, but I think its included in the price.

They'll get a local rep to visit you. Takes about 5mins to do the impressions

Good piece of kit, although always misplacing them!

I had some custom plugs maded by Ultimate Ear a decade or so ago. they're a very, very expensive way of solving a problem.

Now I just buy Mack's Hear Plugs or Ear Seals, which do the job just as well, but at a fraction of the price, and I'm not paranoid about losing them.

I was shocked at the cost of the ones with speakers in, so it may be a long wait for the money.

I've got a set of custom made plugs it I also use them for shooting so worth the cost IMHO and they're not that expensive.
