Sony WH-XB910N Headphone Cushions Replacement

ID: 178333

Description: Headphone cushions can get worn down and broken...

Steps:

1. Insert the prying tool between the left cushion and the plastic.
2. This guide will be starting with the left side of the headphones, but the order doesn’t really matter.
3. Pry the cushion apart from the plastic. You will hear a small click as the cushions become unclipped.
4. Work your way around the cushion until the cushion is completely detached.
5. There will be some bumps around the lining that may prevent you from sliding the prying tool around the cushion. Do not force your way through them; instead re-insert the tool past the point and work from there.

6. Repeat the previous step with the right side cushion.
7. Insert the prying tool and use it to unclip the cushion.

8. Line the tabs on the replacement cushion up with the slots in the left side of the headphones.
9. Both the replacement cushions are the same, so don’t worry about trying to figure out which one is which.
10. Place the cushion, making sure to keep the tabs lined up.

11. Push down on the cushions to connect them into place.
12. Make sure to apply pressure around the whole cushion.
13. You should hear clicks when it connects.

14. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for the right cushion, again making sure to apply pressure around the entire cushion.

15. Lightly tug on the cushions to make sure that they’re secure.
16. Don’t pull too hard; if any of the tabs didn’t connect it will be obvious (see the second picture).
17. Make sure to check both the left and right side, and to check the entire cushion.
18. If anywhere isn’t secure, push down on it again like in Step 5.
19. Once both replacement cushions are secure, the fix is complete.
