Anyone have pictures of how to open the Motorola H700 bluetooth earpiece?
Googling, I found a "JeffL" picture of the opened earpiece over here:

And, I found written instructions (but no pictures) over here (& elsewhere):

Four of these Motorola H700 ear pieces have all gone bad on me over time (I can hear the caller yet the caller can't hear me) so I want to fix them because, when the H700 works, it works well, & it still uses the ubiquitous mini-USB charger.
PS: Yes, I know to press both volume switches to mute and to unmute the Motorola H700 bluetooth earpiece (that's not the problem with the mic not working).
After extensive googling, I find three fixable things seem to go bad:
1.> The red microphone wire breaks (due to poor initial quality)
2.> The tiny microphone hole has a filter inside that clogs
3.> The microphone switch contacts need to be periodically cleaned
A reference for the first issue above is here:

A reference for the second H700 repair is here:

And, a reference for the third Motorola H700 repair is here:

Unfortunately, all three references have DIFFERENT instructions for opening up the Motorola H700 clamshell - so that's why I ask (I wonder if JeffL is the famous Jeff L. of this newsgroup?)
And, none of the references show anyone actually disassembling the earpiece. For example, this reference (wrongly) tries to explain how to open the H700

This one refers to disassembly photos on a geocities site that no longer exists:

Here's the geocities Motorola H700 disassembly instruction site that's gone:

Q: Does anyone know how to resurrect those Motorola H700 disassembly pictures?
