Zumo microphone input jack

[Midrsv]

I recently had my Zumo's motorcycle mount replaced due to a bad connection at the mic input jack causing problems when I tried to talk on the bluetooth phone. I had been using a 3.5mm to 2.5mm adapter to connect the mic. This adapter was a straight adapter which along with the 3.5mm jack caused the whole jack assembly to stick straight out from the mount. My theory is that this put quite a bit of stress on the female jack from the vibrations of the bike. So I went online and found a 90 degree cable adapter that allows me to connect the mic and keep the weight of the cable off of the jack. I figure it can't hurt. If you are interested here is a link to the adapter that I bought: http://www.eforcity.com/cothxxxxad01.html
