Earpadfix | Headphones Earpads Cables Cases Reviews 2

I have just installed my new cushions and I’m so excited!

Installation was a BREEZE. Be careful when detaching the old cushions because you may scratch the headset paint with the knife. I almost did that. 😬

Insert the knife very carefully, the more “length” you slide in, the easier and gentler it’ll be to pop up the cushion. Inserting just the tip of the knife requires more force/pressure to lift the cushion and unglue it, and this is how you’ll scratch the sides of your headset.

Make sure you remove the “metal” piece. Otherwise your new cushions will not be placed properly and will look separated from the headset (thanks to another review I was aware of this!).

Remove ALL the glue that’s there. If it’s still sticky, it needs to be cleaned. The alcohol wipe wasn’t enough for removing it, but it definitely helped with the small pieces of glue. For the big ones like on one of the photos, simply lift one end of the glue strip and peel it all off at once (knife helps to lift the ends of the glue!).

Wipe it off again. Attaching the cushions is easy! Right side is different than the left; it has an indentation where you insert the cable into the headset - pretty easy to see it. There are pins on the headset, they’ll go into the holes on the cushions. Play with it a bit before doing it for real, so you make sure which holes are the correct ones (not all will be used).

GENTLY lift the sticker backing with the tip of a knife (very gently... I almost ruined it!) and align the pins with the holes, put pressure all around and voilà! 👌🏻 It’s REALLY easy. The instructions are very clear.

It looks really good! I don’t know how long it’ll last, but I will update that whenever I know.

One of my cups started coming apart at the seam so I bought these to replace them. I have used the original ones for about 3 years now. I wear my QC's while mowing the lawn in the middle of summer while sweating while jogging while working, and while watching videos on the computer. The leather on the original cups was JUST starting to show signs of cracking and if it weren't for the one separating I would have been happy to continue wearing them as is.
These are super comfortable, even when sweating, and these replacements feel exactly the same to me. I wound up replacing both since the leather was beginning to show signs of wear and installing them was fairly straightforward. It is minorly challenging to get the ear cups to click in under the plastic tabs, not the headphones but if you locate them and use a small flathead screwdriver or similar object it is easily overcome.
I am very happy with the purchase and would expect these to perform as well as the originals...will update the review if I am wrong.
