SOURCE: My Motorola S305 stereo bluetooth headphones' foam
Hey, this might be too late to help you, but I figured I'd share in case anyone else came across this while looking for help (as I did).
There's a small inner ring that the edge of the foam ear pads wraps around, but you can't really fit it under there while it's attached to the earpiece. The solution? I used something thin (specifically a nail file) to remove this "ring". It actually seems designed to pop on and off. I was then able to easily wrap the foam ear pad around the ring, then re-attach the ring to the rest of the earpiece.
Hope that helps!
Testimonial: "I figured this out a month or two ago, but it's good to see someone else put it online for others to find. In my case, I found a credit card worked."
SOURCE: ear pad replacement instructions for Sony MDR-V6 Headphones
Hello to all who have exhausted all avenues seeking instructions on how to remove and replace Ear Pads on Sony MDR-V6 Headphones.... All that is required is a little patience maybe some fingernails... The Pads simply slip on and off by pinching ends of cuff that is nearest the plastic backing of The Headphones by pulling them from their seat/flange .. i found it easiest to just roll the cuff off using my thumb w/rolling motion away from the plastic backing/housing of the headphones.. no tools required.. they are installed exactally like one would place a tire on a rim.. exact same motion is required as when removing a tire.. i can give no better illustruction than comparrison to tire removal and replacement. Be careful to make sure one end in completely set deeply into one side before attempting to pull opposing side over its side/flange..start on top and work way around to bottom or vise versa.. To get an idea of what you are attempting to do take a close look at new headphone pad rear and you will see the small flap of leather on rear .. there is a small overlap that fits perfectly over the flange.. dont try to force it as you may tear them...

I just removed mine, soaked them in rubbing alcohol and now they are sterile and ready to use again. Oh, I forgot to mention they are now devoid of that sweat-like animal odor and garden soil - I am an avid gardener and long distance runner living in a hot, humid climate. You can also replace any damaged or worn out foam with similar products found in old cushions etc.
Hope this helps.
