My opinion, this is all you really need. My team made speaker mics the standard because they are cheap, effective and simple. The guys on my team who have been in the Army/Marines said this is how they used comms and it worked for them. Also My Radio is a BaoFeng Uv-5r. It's cheap and has never failed me.
Get one of the Baofeng speaker mics. They come with a normal headphone socket so you can stick a decent pair of heaphones in them. The earpieces you tend to get for these things are absolute crap.

I made the job easier for you
Sure thing! Sounds like a fun project.
You could pick up one of these and modify the cable, it would be a bit easier.
I have four Baofeng UV-5Rs. They use Kenwood plugs. I have one of these, and it works well, but I prefer not having my ears covered just so I can hear better, so I currently run one of these and I love it.
