How to change battery on AKG Y500

Have old green (the BEST colour!) AKG Y500 where battery has reached end of life. Any help how to open headphones and replace the battery would be super! I don't mind a bit of soldering, if needed. Also, if anyone knows where to get a new compatible battery, that would be appreciated. Thanks!
