I did the same and found the described headset on ebay somewhere in 
Shanghai at a reasonable price and quick delivery. 

I built an adapater to the 8 pole Mic connector and tried it with my K2, but 
the modulation reports I got were not encouraging to use it longer. There is 
also still a problem with the vox, which is not as responsive as it should be. 
I 
helped myself with a PTT in form of a morse key, which does the job better 
than the VOX. 

Another problem was sometimes HF in the modulation, which might be a 
question of correct wiring the adapter to the K2. 

I went back the the Heil Proset with HC5 element, which gave me the best 
results here, or the Kenwood MC2s (if I remember the label right)
