I used a 1/4" to 1/8" adapter from Radio Shack for the headphone part and 
made my own 1/8" to 8 pin DIN for the mike audio. I also included the 
resistor and capacitor inside the DIN connector to provide polizaration 
voltage for the mike element using 1/8 watt resistor 6.8K and a capacitor of 
0.1 uF at 15VDC.  It is a tight fit but works.
