Motorcycle Helmet: Bluetooth for music and calls?

Anyone have any experience with aftermarket add-on kits to add bluetooth capability to a helmet?

I'd like to pick one up and install it in my helmet before my trip. 

Concerns:
1. Can I get something that actually works and I can hear at 65mph, for $150 or less?
2. How long will it take to install in my helmet?

Sena SMH10 or 5, hands down

10 is nicer for group rides because of four way conferencing

Easy install

It's super easy. If your helmet has a removable liner, use that to your advantage when hiding cables
