Here are a few suggestions:
1) Do a google search for 'sony headphones wh1000xm4 replacement plastics'
2) SONY Replacement Parts Website (what they offer) I found at this site.
3) Joe's SONY WH-1000XM4 Repair Parts I found at this site.
- The individual part you needed is offered along with a replacement metal clip.⏎
4) Check eBay - Currently (2/9/24) I see the part you need along with the two piece that attaches from the swivel joint to the speaker for about $11.99 USD
I hear a creaking sound on my left earcup and have tried everything to remove it (tape, lube, opening the sides up) but to no avail. Should I do this guide and check if the creaking is in the hinge part? Thanks.
