Disassemble the Headphone
Disassemble your headphones and make sure you don't lose any screw( they are pretty small).
If you look close inside the headphone there are suppose to be three wires
1. red for left headpiece power
2. blue for right headpiece power and
3. Gold for ground
Colour my vary In different brands. And there could be to gold wires(ground wire) In some headphone, you could just solder them together.
De solder the cable from the headphones.
Drill a hole. I have drilled a hole where the wire was getting out from and filed it. Make sure its big enough for your 3.5 mm jack and then glue it to the head phones.
