What do you guys think? Anyone interested on a how-to? I mean.. it's a pretty straightforward mod, but sooo worthwhile, and it only cost me about 26 bucks!

Yep!

Ok what you need to do is send an email to veronica@beyerdynamic-usa.com requesting to order part number DT-200 with your payment info and shipping address in the email, it cost me $26.90 shipped.

Then once you get those, throw away the plastic rings and just take out the pads + inner felt.

Rip off your old pleather pads, then tack down the felt over the driver with some glue stick around the edges.

Finally, stick the new pads on, this is the tricky part because you have to put the thin plastic on from the top and stretch it around the sides, once you get one side done, the other is cake!!

Exactly! I hated wearing them before because I would always start to sweat... now I don't want to take them off!!

Next up, blue-tak and a thicker velour head rest!

Or maybe I should just get some 580's?
