I got this one off Amazon I think its tidy, I had trouble getting a cheap adapter that worked and this works mint , http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00MT5K9BO?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
sound quality is good and I haven't got 3 meters of cable in my helmet like other ones I have bought

It doesn't say CUNT, dammit!
I just ordered another one of these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001EOZUKQ?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
My first one lasted a year, but me constantly screwing with my setup and 100mph winds finally did it in.
Last week I bought a "Giant Squid" lav mic which cost 4 times as much but it's on its way back to Amazon as we speak. Couldn't hold up to any amount of wind noise and would overload and clip out. Sometimes pricier isn't better.

More than enough. I had to roll up the cord and twist tie it, and keep it under my cheek pad. IIRC It also comes with a 3.5mm-2.5mm adapter.

fyi you can pick those up on flea bay much cheaper from china, same quality imo. Been using mine for a while now as a secondary mic. needs good windblocking though
this is what i sewed up from material at a craft store, works great

Do you mount that inside your helmet?

no, i use that for footage where i'm not wearing a moto helmet...
it would likely be a bit bulky for a helmet

Cheap mics work great with the GoPro's, no need to spend above a fiver.
They auto level the audio so most mics work fine.

mine was like 10 or 15 bux on ebay and I think it sounds just fine. I also use it in the live hangouts.
How to make those dead cat mic cover?

Cut up an old (clean) sock and zip tie it around the mic. You need to block out the wind but a full on fuzzy dead cat is not ideal in a helmet.
