Hi Michael,

oddly enough headphones are illegal for inside a car. Bikes and deaf don't count (most unfair)

I made an intercom using a single earpiece for me and Sue and it works very well. It also allows outside sounds to come through as normal.

 

How about if you wore a crash helmet with a radio/intercom fitted as per motorbikes.

Hi Dave

 

That speaker looks excellent and suits the age of the car. I think I'll put one in mine. I was wondering where I could put one.

 

regards

Dave

IANAL but I don't believe there is a specific illegality to using headphones in a car, full, in ear, ipod whatever. UK law typically isn't that specific. As I said before, what about deaf people? However, you might risk being pulled for careless driving or due care and if you had an accident you could have a problem.

I take the point about illegal for the driver,

I had in mind allowing my wife to enjoy radio/music etc while I enjoy the driving/noise of the car, wind in my hair....less hair now. but you get the point

The real interest for me is the noise cancellation idea

Ps I did some stage rallying using a helmet intercom and it had to work one way : navigator to driver other wise all you got was heavy breathing interspersed with Oh Sh.t!! etc

Or you could put the speaker here in this period speaker box, A tr6 one I'm led to believe, but I stand to be corrected.

 

Cheers
