A normal 300 coil is the same of 300 for BHID negative in water? I know how to make the swap but i need a waterproof and negative coil... is the 300 LTD so?

It's the same coil. The problem you will find is not related to it's buoyancy but if you buy the Super 12 / 300mm with the standard connector and make the change yourself several things could happen.
One, you would have to cut the connector off and the cable would be then be to short for chest and/or hip mounting. The cable on the coils that the factory uses for the BH 300 are quite long. Two, if the unit is still under warranty, it would be voided. Three, you would have to break the watertight seal to remove the 9.5 coil and unless you had a way of testing its integrity you'd have no way of knowing if the seal was watertight.

If you really want to do it yourself you can get the factory to send you one with the longer cable w/o the connector. My suggestion would be to send it in and have the factory change the coil and test the watertight seal.
