"I've got mine replaced under warranty at the store where I bought it (PC World/Currys)

"I know that this is late but there is a bigger solution to fixing this.

I just tried this product yesterday on my skullcandy wireless crushers, now i have pictures that it definitely holds, sturdy as heck and unlike other glues a little does go a long way.

The glue i used is loctite epoxy plastic bonder. And also you can cover any of it with black paint as well. (20 minutes to bond, 24 hours to completely cure."

"Good Morning Guys.

Can someone send me a email like you sent to SkullCandy Warranty?

because i sent 3 times and they reply always with that samples messages.

""Sorry to hear that you are having problems with your Skullcandy product, but keep reading to learn how you can take advantage of our warranty program!

Our warranty is valid for 24 months from date of purchase and only covers manufacturing defects. We need a receipt (or copy of your bank/CC statement) as proof of purchase.

Please go to http://www.skullcandy.co.uk/customer-ser... to find out how to participate in our warranty program.

We don’t repair our headphones, but we replace them for valid warranty claims.

Just send us a scan of the proof of purchase (receipt or bank/credit card statement), the model of your headphone, your full postal address and a phone number, and we will send a free replacement cable your way!

If your headphones have been purchased more than 2 years ago or if you don’t have proof of purchase anymore, you can purchase a new replacement cable from our shop (http://www.skullcandy.co.uk/shop/accesso...).

THANKS GUYS ;)"

"Same happened to my headphones after 3 (!) months. I have an idea to print this part on 3d printer and add some additional metal parts to make it more ""bendproof"". Also I wil make a ""dangerous"" part a little bit wider for additional safety. The only thing: I don't know how to disassemble the part where metal band puts into this part. I see that it can be disassembled but I.m not sure how to do it right =)

Does anyone evere disassembled this part and know how the metal band connects to it?"
