Headphone Ear Pads Replacements Need help please

I have Beats Solo 2 headphones and the ear pads are wearing out.

 

I know Beats does not sell replacements but in researching online I'm finding conflicting advice regarding brands.

 

Unfortunately mine are limited edition rose colored so I'll have to go with black  most likely.

 

I know only dinosaurs use headphones now but these headphones still perform great.

 

Any help will be appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance.

I just received replacement pads for my Bose headphones and cannot get them on.  They are the same size as the ones I am replacing so I can't figure it out.  Will have to have hubs try when he gets home.  I really like the Bose and use them because I can't keep ear buds in.  Never tried Beats.

Amazon sells these 'pink' cushions that fit the Solo2. Reviews are good.

I should have added my earphones are wired. The wireless are not compatible.

The ones I posted are for wired. @Cakers3 

Are they the right color?

@SilleeMee  I did see the ones you posted are wired.

 

Mine were limited color rose not pink. 

 

The problem I find is the heading will say compatible with Solo 2 and Solo3 but then inside the description only says one or the other.

 

Either one would probably work but I'm not sure. I watched on YouTube but some comments said the video was incorrect.😵‍💫

 

I don't mind a different color because mine was limited at the time so a match will probably be impossible.

 

I might go in person to someplace like Best Buy. I'll also ask grandson. He also doesn't like buds.

 

Thank you for helping me.🙂

 

Thank you for your help.

@Cakers3 , when I Google replacement pads for wired Beasts Solo I get results from Amazon, Walmart and Best Buy.  Maybe a trip to Best Buy or Walmart would help.  Should note that I am in Canada.

 

As an aside, I just bought Apple AirPods.  To date I am not a fan of ear buds but love these.  My Bluetooth Beats are getting old.

 

Good luck!

@Lilysmom1   Thank you. I'm planning to try Best Buy as soon as we get out of this heat!!!

 

Wired headphones seem to be dinosaurs now. My pair is about 9 years old and just recently one pad is getting bad.

 

The problem I'm running into is the title will say "wired" but when I look at the description it will say not for wired.😵‍💫

 

I have grandson on the hunt too. He also uses headphones instead of pods.

 

Enjoy the airpods.  For some reason I could never keep the ear plugs that came with my iPod in my ears. 🤪
