If your Bose ear pads are worn out, or you just want to update the look of your headphones, you can replace them yourself. It’s a relatively straightforward process and only requires a few tools.
How to Replace Bose Ear Pads
First, you’ll need to purchase replacement ear pads. Make sure to get the right size and style for your particular model of Bose headphones.
Once you have the new ear pads, start by removing the old ones. Use a small screwdriver or similar tool to pry off the retaining ring that holds the ear pad. Be careful not to damage the headphone housing while doing this.
With the old ear pads removed, simply press the new ones into place until they snap into place. That’s it! Your Bose headphones will look and feel like new again. Enjoy!
Alternative Way to Replace Bose Ear Pads
If your Bose headphones are starting to feel a little uncomfortable, it might be time to replace the ear pads. Here’s how to do it:
- First, remove the old earpads by gently pulling them away from the headphone cups. You may need to use a small amount of force, but be careful not to damage the cups.
- Once the old ear pads are off, take a look at how they were attached. Most Bose headphones use velcro or adhesive strips to keep the pads in place.
- If your new ear pads have velcro strips, simply line up and press them together. If the pads have adhesive strips, peel off the backing and attach them to the headphone cups.
- Once the new earpads are in place, give them a few minutes to adhere before wearing your headphones again. And that’s it! You should now have a pair of headphones that feel as good as new.
