Logitech G930 Headband Replacement

[nopin]

Hello,

I'm sure this is a common problem, but I haven't been able to find anything that tells how to do this.

So what is happening is the memory foam headband (this piece for further description http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/detail-page/B003VANOFY_G930_memory_foam_lg.jpg) Is beginning to peel, along with the ear pads. I know the ear pads would be a breeze to replace. What I want to know is how to remove the afore mentioned headband piece. I have found a headband piece from the g430 on ebay that looks similar the problem is taking apart the headset to get the old one out.

 

If you need pictures or anything I'd be happy to take and post them.

 

 

Thanks

Nopin

I'm not sure, mine have been long gone for about a year now lol (the stuff covering the pads).

You can actually get the entire headset replaced, if it's still under warranty. My g930's did the same a year ago

Yep I did it too, got the whole headset replaced. Its now my backup though.

I would try to RMA it rather than trying to fix it. Logitech is pretty good about returns if you have purchase documents, etc.

I bought it used (very good condition, but no documentation) on ebay, about 1 1/2 to 2 years ago I believe. So even if the warranty hasn't expired, it wouldn't do me a whole lot of good.

 

Thanks for all the replyies.

Assuming you haven't worked it out yet, I'll just say what I did.

This was actually a very easy process. The only trick is the little plastic clip either side of the padding doesn't want to slide out, instead I just pride it out with a (flat head) screwdriver and the pad just slid out. Then to put the clip back in, don't slide it in like what it looks like it's supposed to do, but click it back in the same way you forced it out with the screwdriver. You may need to slightly bend the plastic frame of the headset to make it fall into place.

If you need pics just let me know.
