Came out real nice sask!
 

Nice & neat looks good buddy
 

I guess I could always plug the wireless 3.5mm jack in the back and use wireless headphones too, I've never tried out a witless set before does anyone know if they are nice and clear sounding?

How about a list of Materials and where you got them--Great looking job// Perry
 

Sure , all this cost me was $3.99 for the 3.5mm jack, pop off the hard plastic end cap on atp pro and drill a 5/16 hole in it and thread the jack right down into it , then I cut about a foot of the cable off my Garrett headphones , then used a step bit to drill the hole abit larger than the headphone cable housing and fed it through the hole and out to the other end, I needed to add about two extra inches of wire so used some 24 gauge wire to do that , soldered it all together and heat shrinked all solder points ,then soldered the wires to the jack and then used hot glue gun on connections to keep from water corrosion, and then heat shrinked over that, all that's left is to pop the end piece back in and shoot a little dielectric grease inside the jack to help with water corrosion when used under water , everything still all water proof Sent from my iPhone using TreasureNet
