I don't like helmet speakers, so this is a natural for use with earbuds. Also, the wired mic works much better than the boom mic with a full-face helmet.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I bought this because while the standard SMH-10 speakers aren't bad for phone calls, the quality and volume are insufficient for music.
It does what it says it does, it allows you to plug in headphones into the bluetooth, and in that regard it works well. There are however four issues, one major, that I encountered already on the first ride.
1. Switching SMH-10 bases I also decided to use the smaller button sized microphone rather than the standard boom mic. Its nice not having the boom on a full face helmet, but according to those that I've talked to on the phone, while they can still hear me fine, they can tell that I'm moving with some wind noise, vs the standard SMH-10 boom mic where they never knew I was riding. Not sure the difference. This base also came with a boom mic, so I still need to try that one to see if it makes a difference.
2. Having the sound in headphones means that you can easily understand phone calls and music. The downside is that the quality of the audio sounds very compressed as compared to being plugged directly into the iPhone or standard bluetooth headphones. There is crackliness in the peaks, especially spoken podcasts and such. It's not a deal breaker given the freedom it offers, but it is a little annoying.
3. The third problem is the worst. The connector for the headphones is not robust at all. The plastic part around the headphone cable that keeps it sticking out straight and keeps pressure off the actual cable ripped in the first or second ride. So now the connector hangs down. It still works fine, but I imagine it's only a matter of time before it rips the cable itself. This is the biggest problem. I'll probably look to see if I can get it replaced under warranty, but I'm sure it'll just happen again.
4. Their is no base option to have both the speakers and the headphones if needed. Which is a little annoying as sometimes I won't wear my earpieces if I'm just driving a short distance or no highway, but that just renders the bluetooth useless as it has no speakers without the headphones.
I still recommend this product thus far as it's a great feature for the SMH-10 that other bluetooth units are lacking, but I do have serious issues with regards to the build quality of this base plate.

EVERYTHING I have purchased by Sena has been awesome. My SMH-10 made it thru the albeit mild winter we had here in the Jersey Shore area and it stil l working great. All of the accessory items have been as high quality as the next. Kudos to Sena AND Revzilla for offering this product.

I only wish I would of had this option when I purchased the stock SENA SMH10. Addition of earbuds reduce the need for ear plugs and allows me to use some of the highend earbuds I have. Removal of the boom to an attached mic removes the need of continually readjusting the boom mic after I pull my helmet on. My only concern is the plug for the earbuds, it seems a little fragile. This may be unfounded. I've wanted this setup for my full face helment for a while and when they went on sale jumped on the opportunity for the upgrade. Moved my boom mic to my modular helmet.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Sena is just about the only company that realizes that many motorcyclists prefer to wear earplug-based headphones when riding. I care about my hearing and I care about sound quality. I use a pair of Shure E3C with my MP3 player until recently. When it came time to buy an intercom system, this kit swayed me to the Sena SMH-10 units.
This thing is trivial to install. I am using it with a Nolan N102 flip-face helmet. I opted for the wired (not boom) mike and it works great. The sound with my Shures is wonderful.
My only complaint is that it would be great if they offered the unit with the normal in-helmet speakers, and put the miniplug on them so I could opt to use the helmet speakers for short trips.
The female plug for the headphones sticks out from the back of the unit, seems like something the could have designed better, but I haven't had any problems with it.
If you want to use the boom mike only, you can get the SMH-A0303 instead (show in related products below). This is more solid than the boom-mike/sticky mount for this SMH-A0304.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Overall, very happy with the swap from the standard Sena mic and speakers to the earbud and wired mic setup. The noise blocking characteristics of earbuds (I use Shure e3c buds) makes them a much better choice for communication and music listening at higher speeds. Install is easy with both. I use the wired mic because it uses less space than the standard and has no loss of sound quality. For music listening, if fidelity matters to you, the Sena speakers are unsatisfactory.
My only concern with this mount is the durability of the stem into which the earbuds plug. It extends about an inch and shows signs of loosening after a few weeks use. I'm a daily commuter so time will tell how it holds up. It is placed in such a way that when the helmet is put down, some weight rests against it.
