Have you ever wanted to add accessory's to your oculus quest but were afraid to break something, or simply not know how?

I will guide you step-by-step to ensure you do not break anything and know how to properly apply the accessory.

What you need

Step 1 Controller straps

First, you will want to pick up any of the controllers to begin replacing the wrist strap.

Edit

Step 2

Adjacent to the controller's joystick is a white triangle button.
You need to press down firmly on the button to open the controller's battery compartment.

Step 3

Once you open the compartment, pinch and pull up the strap to disconnect it from the controller.

Step 4

Grab the corresponding wrist strap for the controller you are working on.

Step 5

With the new wrist strap, push the black clip down into the now-empty small compartment to connect your new strap to the controller.

Edit

Step 6

You can close the battery compartment using the new cover connected to the controller strap.
Closing the battery compartment can be frustrating because it is connected to the strap; I found it easier to slide the cover from the bottom to the top.
The new controller straps come with new battery compartment covers, so when you replace the straps, you will end up with spare parts.

Step 7

Put the controller in your hands to see if you need to adjust the fit of the strap.
If Adjustments are needed, you can pull or push the strap through the clip's hole.

Step 8

Next, repeat steps 2-7 on the second controller.
As mentioned in step 6, you will have spare parts left over from the original wrist strap and battery cover. Store these parts somewhere safe if you ever feel like reverting to the original controller straps.
