Cardo Scala G-4 Ear Bud modification - Page 5

This is really a simple mod.. I suck at anything electronic... suck at soldering, and generally suck at small detail work.. still after one failed attempt that cost me one $2.00 plug, I moded two bases in about 30 minutes.. give it a try.

I'm really sorry but a few weeks ago I went in for emergency open heart surgery and have been pretty much down for the count. I am back and able to do the mods again at this time.

Your unit was shipped last friday afternoon. I completed all the clamps I had and returned them.

At this point I have done dozens of these mods, all of them went back the same day they were received. I just had a health problem, triple bypass and the repair of a hole in my atrial septum wall the size of a nickel. I'm up and about now, exercising every day and in a Cardiac Rehab program FWIW. Although, it will still take a couple of months before I'm riding again, serious bummer.

Your clamp should be in your hands shortly if not already. I can always be reached by sending an email to eileen.kelleher@gmail.com

If any of you feel cheated or like I misrepresented anything just send me a pm and I will refund your money, I can't do much more than that.

Thanks much.
Eileen

Glad to hear you are recovering well. That is a major surgery to go through.

Eileen, glad to hear you're OK! I'd hoped it wasn't something like that, but thought maybe it was, a family issue or medical problem. I'm glad everything turned out OK and you're back on the mend. I sure hope I didn't sound like I was thinking you were cheating me or anything of the like, I don't feel that way at all. Was just wondering if anyone knew what had happened to delay you. Again, glad all's well! Thanks.

Got my G4 in the mail yesterday. Nice work. Thanks Eileen!

John Smallberries · 09-08-2011, 06:16 AM

I am simply amazed by Eileen/JetGrl and hope you Cardo Scala G4 owners appreciate the service she is providing. I did mine myself and am happy I didn't screw it up! Keep this in mind:
- $30 is a fantastic price for this painstaking, sensitive work
- she now has experience with dozens of jobs, so she will do a better job than you could yourself
- she turns the units around in a day, or so
- she APOLOGIZES to her customers for having open heart surgery!!!!

It is great to know that people like this exist.

Thank you Eileen/JetGRL and I hope you are back to 100% soon!

Another happy customer of Eileen's/Jetgrl's Cardo Scala G4 ear bud mod. She did the work and had the headset back to me in just over one week. It works great! Thank you, Eileen.

JetGrl · 09-24-2011, 09:54 PM

From Eileen:

I'm still getting better each day. I feel probably the best I ever have in my life due to the efficiency of my heart now.

I even started riding again. I was looking for another bike and went to GoAZ in Scottsdale. I talked to Jason, who sold my beloved FJR to me last year and he offerred to let me ride a 2010 Honda VFR1200f. It will be coming home with me next week, I got a screaming deal on it.

Anyway, that was the first time I rode since the heart surgery.

Thanks to all who had kind words to say, I think I am going to be in great shape soon, thanks to a really good surgeon.

Can anybody point me to a seller of the mini jacks. Live in Norway and want to do this modification during wintertime, but struggling to find the right female mini jacks!

John Smallberries · 10-08-2011, 02:52 AM

Not sure what the shipping to Norway would be, but these guys have many options:

Thanks, they ship to Norway, but a minimum order of 50 $. Do not need so many.
