Just making decisions about hearing devices and like the idea of being able to hear again while riding.
I am totally deaf in my left ear and slightly impaired on the right.
So I need now decide on what system I should get that I can use with a helmet. Hearing aids CROS or Cochlear implant.
What helmet solutions are others using?

I had some difficulty in finding a helmet that would allow me to wear my hearing aids when I ride. I wear a Shoei RF1200 normally, but it's almost impossible to get it on without displacing the hearing aids. I found a modular helmet that the whole front pivots up and the helmet can be pulled to spread out the opening and fits right over the hearing aids without any problem.

I don't normally look at modular helmets but that makes perfect sense. Thanks for that looks like I will be using a CROS.

I have a modular and what MR305 said is correct. With the chin piece up, you can spread the bottoms apart. I do that because I always wear sunglasses and normal full face helmets, for me, make it hard to get my sunnies on correctly.
