What You’ll Need

  • 1 pair of XL ear pads (left and right)

You will also need:

  • The plastic retainer rings from your original ear pads
  • Spudger or other thin pry tool

Step-by-Step: How to Install XL Ear Pads on the Razer Opus X

Step 1: Unclip the old ear pad

Slide a spudger between the ear pad and the ear cup and pry up. You’ll hear it unclip. Then unclip the rest by hand.

Step 2: Remove the retainer ring

Pull the old pad’s flaps out of the slits in the plastic retainer ring. Keep the ring. You need it for the new pad.

Step 3: Fit the ring into the new pad

Insert the ring into the new pad with the plastic clips facing up. Stretch the pad’s rim a little so it fits all the way around the ring.

Tip: Make sure the plastic posts and clips are exposed. You don’t need to cut the pad.

Step 4: Snap it on

Line up the clips with the ear cup and press all the way around. You may or may not hear snaps.

Step 5: Adjust if needed

If an edge looks loose, remove the pad and reposition it around the retainer ring. Repeat on the other side.

Upgrade your Opus X comfort.

Why Upgrade Your Opus X Ear Pads?

The stock Opus X ear pads tend to flatten out, which can make them uncomfortable on your ears.
