After creating a gap continue to lift the ear pad off until fully removed

For reinstalling the ear pads use the same techniques for a easy installation

On older headphones the foam sponge part of the ear pad can deteriorate,it is recommended that if there is any leftover foam that it is remove to the best of your ability to improve the longevity of the headphone,the drivers are delicate please be careful:-)

Congratulations you have now removed your M50’s ear pads:-)
