Bose X ear seals

[dwshimoda]

$19.95 in the US, or £37.99 in the UK.

Using a basic conversion, that's $60.85. How the hell can they be three times more expensive over here? I love my headset, but this is taking the p**s!

Does anyone know of any cheaper alternatives?

you can order it through any of the pilot shop's website in the US and get it for international delivery using your credit card. Just have to pay for the shipping.

That is how I got mine.

NOTE: Bose says to change the seals every 6 months or 100 hours of flight. Never found a difference between the new and the old though.

Anyone having issues with the window heat system filtering through the microphone? i.e. an annoying audible beeping tone. Only happens on some aircraft and depending whether the sun is affecting the window.
