Where can I get me some headphone cups?

[bratwurstdimsum]

Hi there I'm getting myself some Panzer headphones pictured below, I was just wondering where the heck I would find the rubber headphone cups?

Hi Jeff, these are really tough to find. I would really not consider buying any which are missing these parts. But if you are already committed to the purchase, I wish you good luck. If I do see any, I will drop you a line.

Cheers, Ade.

Thanks Ade, I haven't committed yet but its only US$170 and I'm trading a wernstein U-boat badge for it so if anybody wants to offer me one for the same ...even better

Like most items these are also reproduced. A close friend gave me a pair to replace the ones missing from one of my sets.He got them at Military vehicle show in Poland.They are either made in Poland or Czech Republic.
They do leave a black stain on the head if left on for long periods.
If I can get more info I will post it. Cheers Steve

Hello SJP, I don't mind too much about the repros and stains as its going on a head display so if you can get hold of some that would be grand.

Cheers

Original cups are difficult if not impossible to get, I have only seen one set available but it was a long time ago.
Repro may be your only option.
How close are the repro ones?

I realize this is a very old thread, but just in case one is still looking for the cups, there is a pair on a auction site right now starting at $40.00. Not a auction site i support very often, but lets just say they "banned" German Third Reich militaria some years back, that should be the give away on the site i am talking about.

Good luck!
