    • After removing the two small screws, try closing the headband to it's shortest position. The outer panel will pop out toward the bottom edge.

    • After inspecting the wire inside, you may notice cracks in the corners were the wires bend when the headphones are folded. I cut a thin strip of electrical tape to use as reinforcement.

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
