Hi,
 
I hope some long standing Beyerdynamic-fan reads this. My old DT-911 needs new headband pushers and the headband itself. The problem is, i dont know how to remove the plastic clamps of the driver hangings. If thats done i guess you just can slide the rest of the parts out or in.  
 
These are the plastic clamps

and they rest here
 

 
I would be very happy if someone can tell me how do it.
 
thx2all

Looks like the old DT880, use a thin bladed knife and pry the clamps out.


I'd hoped that theres a softer way, but you give me certainty to just pry it out. As suspected it leaves small marks, but without having special tools it seems to be unavoidable. I use the smallest screwdriver i have and start to push and crank gently till the screwdriver gets under the plastic clamp. Then continue pulling/cranking and try to avoid damaging the border of the hanging as much as possible. Now i have new original headband and pusher.Maybe its time to start thinking about a custom leather headband from a tailor. Very thick leather or thin leather filled with foam?^^
But first of all @MDR30 thanks a lot man ! YMMD
