No, Just plug it into the hole as normal but not to pushed in until too deep, just ngam2 sit at the lobe.

I use something like this but got it from Daiso for RM 5.60 for 2 pairs. Didn't have any issues removing them as the stem is quite long and easy to grab and remove.

this type was actually the first type i ever used.... only lasted like 10 minutes then i removed them coz they caused me so much pain with the helmet on

so far the only ones ive tried that works are foamies... 3M 1110 with string... n another different one my GF bought for me

Did you try cutting some of the stem off to make it shorter? Might be cause of the pressure on the longer stem when helmet is on. I did cut a bit off for the first few ones I used.

I had tried many types of ear plugs.

Those silicon type hurt me most.

Those tampon like with strings are mostly silicon type, hurt me.

Those ear bud like Apple bud, Jabra bud whatever butt, I always have problem keeping them in place after I shaft my head into my full face. One of them will surely dislodge. I wear head cover btw to keep them in place... Grrrrr....

Those cone shape foam type does not seem to cover up by big ear hole properly. I usually get one side slightly dislodged and can hear more on one side over the other.

Ended up, found this the best for me

no i didnt... i just immediately kept them...

if foam is not fitting properly and getting dislodged, u may not be inserting it properly. u just shove in or u do it like video? supposed to be like video with hand behind the head n pulling ear thingy

I can confirm my ear has larger cave than usual

I am used to these PPE and properly trained to use them in hazardous work area where HSE is top priority.

Anyhooooo.. happy to have found the right foam plug for myself and nearly emptied the seller's inventory. Now my drawer is kinda full with those foam plug

Likewise. I won't find the silicon ones comfortable to wear. I still prefer the foamies. I just replace them after a few rides.

I replace the foam when they started to smell nice from a distance 😝

Usually after 4-5 rides

Was recomended alpinestar motorsafe

anyone tried this brand?
