Thought I would start a thread in the appropriate forum to avoid clogging up the Retail board.
Please discuss your mods to the Senn GoPro mic and post pics so everyone can follow along.

email from Sennheiser -
"The MKE 2 capsules are the same (as the regular mics), but the form factors are different. The units for the GoPro HERO 4 are integrated into a housing to make them waterproof when used with that camera, and have different connector types. The Regular MKE 2 are not waterproof, and have either 3.5mm or Lemo connectors"
