Got my v1.1 kit and installed it today, went very well. Here is my only recommendations to make the install instructions easier. 1. it doesn't mention that you won't be reinstalling the plate the microphone is attached to. I was trying to figure out a way to remove the ring from the inner microphone mount, I spent a long time trying to hammer the insert out, but after rereading your instructions I could see that it wasn't going to be used. Just mention in the instructions what pieces can are not going to be reinstalled. 2. The microphone plastic piece fit very well but it would be good to just put the adhesive pad on the part or give a couple adhesive pads in the box. 3. You should warn earlier about needing a 7mm T1 driver, I ended up having to cut my tool in half with a hack saw. I would have ordered it if I had known up front (my bad for not reading the full instructions first).

Instead of manufacturing each board with the USB-C audio passthrough, could you create a kit that allows the customer to rob the IC from the proper adapter and flow it on themselves? Would be more of a challenge but would still make it cheaper than doing each board individually. Also would be cool to see if the 2 way audio even works. It would be so nice to use the airpods max on airplanes when watching the built in airplane movies.

BUT, it's nice that you made this for people who like them and DOUBLE nice that you didn't just fork out a reliability issue as a lot of modders seem to do. The sandwich flex was a smart solution. Also, rip your eyesight, i bet searching for the right connector was painful. I know the pain, been there :))

I have airpods max with lightning, does your adapter work in jack with a USBC to Jack adapter? I don't know if it does because Apple just announced the same AirPods Max with USB C, so it's not worth buying them again. I'm asking because I'm going to upgrade to the iPhone 16 Pro Max and I'd like all my Apple products with USB C.

Wow now you can charge you headphones with a reversible connector that is readily accessible…. Oh wait lightning is already that. Honestly don’t get the need to make everything USB C. The regulations causing that means that most people that have had iPhones for years now have to buy all new charging bricks (because their old bricks are USB A) or they have to buy new USB A - USB C cables which defeats the purpose. I have tons of lightning cables that I’ve accumulated over the years plugged in around the house that are now useless to my new USB C iPhone…. Meanwhile my wife’s phone is lightning. And there’s literally no advantage for me… I’m just charging it.
