Congratulations on your purchase of the finest motorcycle helmet communication system available. You will find it to be an indispensable communication tool. It will enable the

as well as the velcro pieces for mounting as noted in this installation guide.

system with virtually all FRS/GMRS radios and most mobile phones (may require purchase of additional adapters). The radio and/or mobile phone are not included.
Note: this Helmet Talk™ system is designed for use only with FRS/GMRS 2-way radios with
external headset jacks and internal VOX (voice activated operation). It can also be
used with any mobile
phone with an external
headset jack that can be
connected to one of cables
