This is a very simple, cheap and effective way to fix your headphones if the plastic has broken or cracked and needs to be reattached or reinforced.  

You will need:
Repair Putty aka Mighty putty - I got mine at Dollarama for 2.00 
Small Phillips Screwdriver - not sure what size...
Black paint - latex, whatever  

Unfortunately I didn't get the idea to make this repair an Instructable until half way through the process so you'll have to make do with the pics I took.

Unscrew the screw holding which attaches the bridge of the headphones to the earphone.  You need to pop off the plastic casing and keep that and the screw aside in a safe place.  Remove the earphone.

Next you need to detach the actual cup from the broken piece (looks like an inverted Y).
See the pictures for explanation.
