Sounds like a good idea to me, cannot wait for pics. I think the g.i. drivers will kinda look obnoxious though. Good luck

No offense, but G.I. drivers into Icon's sounds like a waste of money man. Don't bother.

not a waste, got some icons..... got some gis..... just cut the cord on the GIs and get a new pair with an intact pair just missing the cord and go from there. all i had to do was take the drivers out of the GIs without the cord and put them into the icons then sawder the icons cord to the GIs cord and tada. i still hve  brnd new pair of GIs being shipped to me on warranty

yeah, now you're down a set of headphones, though the new product looks pretty sick minus the tape. i'm surprised they haven't made rasta icons yet

kid's a genius actually (read his last post)  he cut the cord on his gis, and with skullcandy's warranty, you dont have to send in the headphones; just the cut plug.  so he sent in the plug, and they sent him a new pair of gis, and he still has the old gi drivers to mess around with...no loss of headphonage there

Aki, when you first told me this idea i was like that will look worse then your ex-girlfriend, but you actually did a good job, those are so legit! i like the electrical tape coloring makes it look way better.

use a razor or a scalpel, either will work fine, or you could use that strange hatchet thing that's always on your counter
