Steps:

1. Firmly grasp the earmuff and pull away from the center until the lip of the earmuff is disengaged.
2. Pull the earmuff towards the center of the headphones until it is free.

3. Remove the three 3 mm screws using a JIS #00 screwdriver.

4. Carefully remove the faceplate by lifting it firmly.
5. Avoid rough movements, as there is a single thin wire connecting the faceplate to the internals.
6. If the repair is for the right-side driver, be mindful of the charging port, as the faceplate has a slot there for it. Lift the opposite end and back the port out.
7. To completely detach the faceplate, desolder the wires from the connections on the motherboard.

8. Pull each of the three pull tabs away from the center of the faceplate, disengaging them and exposing the back of the speaker driver.
9. Push a Jimmy or other pry tool gently between the driver and the grey spacer.
10. Lift gently until the driver is loose, being mindful not to damage the wires connecting to the driver.

11. Desolder the two wires from the driver carefully.
12. Orient your new driver and solder the wires to it, making sure to solder the wires to the correct terminals and confirming that the wires aren't crossed.
