Description: Use this guide to remove or replace the earcup...

Steps:

1. Before beginning any repairs, turn off your headphones.
2. The earcup cushions of the Sony WH-1000XM3 are held in place by small plastic clips and it's the same removal procedure for both, the left and the right cushion.

6. Pry up the earcup cushion by tilting the spudger downwards to release the plastic clips.
7. Repeat the previous step around the perimeter of the earcup cushion to release the remaining clips.

8. Remove the earcup cushion.
