If you have got a LH350 it would pay to carry out this small modification to your helmet as the cable can pull out of the back and break the wires as happened to one of my colleagues. Gallet sent a letter to him along with a new cable with instructions to fit a ty-wrap with a 3-5mm sheath length out of the p-clip.

I did mine as shown and pretty easy to do.
1. Remove the four (metric) screws and lift off the cover on the back of the helmet.
2. Check the length is 3-5 mm past the p-clip.
3. Fit a good quality ty-wrap (not one from the $2 shop) taking care not to damage the PCB when trimming.
4. Take note when putting the cover plate back on that you get the little locator tab in between the cable and plate.
5. Torque up the screws evenly and don't do them up too tight as you could break the anchor nut mounts.
