Introdução
a Student at work broke there xm5's and I offered to try and fix them, this is what I found
This is an incomplete guide, as I only briefly had these headphones, and was not authorised to do a full disassembly, and did not have spare parts
Please replace this guide should a more complete version be created.
``Its important to note that in this case the metal swivel in the headphone band was intact, and the plastic had not broken, if that were the case you would need to replace the whole headphone band, there are other guides for that:
an example from a repair company i am not affilated with or endorse

O que você precisa
-
-
Using the spugger pull the earpad inward, and pry the ear pad up and away from the earcup
-
-
-
We separate the back of the ear cup to get better acsess to the arm later
-
Remove the non glued down foam, and the 8 marked screws
-
-
-
-
this screw is easyer to acsess without the back of the headphone cup
-
-
-
Rushed for time, i didnt remember to take a photo of this part, please forgive me
-
there is a screwed and plate covering the attachment hardware that has come lose its location is indicated here:
-
We can use the access back here to hold onto the silver mounting screw and make sure we can screw the arm back together
-
-
-
pull out this adjustable arm piece out of the headband
-
Unscrew the wire free from the adjustable arm piece, letting the arm spin freely around the wire.
-
screw the adjustable arm piece back on-to the earcup arm, in my case there was some resistance from a lip on the screw that prevented it becoming unscrewed in the first place. i was able to gently push past it multiple times till it was screwed on snugly
-
-
-
go backwards though the steps to re-assemble
-
as always, i added a little Easter egg to my free repairs.

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
Sorry there are not more detailed photos, I was rushed to fix this and making it up as I go along.
If i can fix it, so can you <3
