Install mute button motorcycle intercom system

Hi,

I do endurance karting races and we currently have motorcycle intercoms installed into our helmet.
We have a pair of this: https://www.amazon.com/EJEAS-Motorcycle-Snowmobile-Communication-Interphone/dp/B078S67GK2/ref=sr_1_3?crid=1LANH9LFZBJJI&keywords=ejeas+v6+pro&qid=1695119994&sprefix=ejeas+v6+pro%2Caps%2C221&sr=8-3

It is basically a bluetooth transmitter, you can plugin via 3.5mm aux. (this system is in the helmet).
The other device is basically built in a headset diy style.

Now this thing is full duplex, you can hear each other constantly. During a race this can be pretty annoying. That the driver constantly talks is perfectly fine but the other guy standing in the 'paddock' does not need to talk all the time. there is a lot of background noice for the driver too.

Therefor I was wondering if there is some sort of 'button' that I can easily slide on (without the need to cut open the headset cables?). Tried to scout amazon but I am a total noob about these kind of stuff

You could try a inline mute something similar to this.

i'll do some more scouting and add the proper one on in a sec.

Great, thank you for the suggestion. I can try this one out. The parts are pretty cheap so worth a shot!
