I dismantled a pair of headphones with big speakers and stripped them down to just the bare speakers then glued them in my lid with a hot glue gun. It was for the satnav. I can hear it with no earplugs but the windnoise does my head in. So I got an amplifier for them so now I can keep my earplugs in.

But to answer your question- no, I don't ;)

thats quite a good idea actually, how did you fit the speakers into your helmet though?

Theres a big hole in my lid (caberg v2) right at the ear with no padding. So just them in there. Don't feel a thing.
I just tuck the cable in the flap at the bottom when I'm not using them

Viper Helmets do a bluetooth one.

But they are ****e :) Just thought after posting I would never recommend them. It has never worked and the amount of wind noise you get makes you feel like you have your head in the boot of a gary boys Golf GTI with a million Subwoofers in it. Its painful.

There are a few systems on the market that allow you plug all manner of stuff into them and then play them through a set of headphone type things in your lid.

He just wants a pair of speakers in his lid to plug a music player into - so those £10 jobbies that Stu was flogging would be ideal

Or get some in-ear headphones like what I use.
