Carefully pop out (or flip out) the ear tip of your AirPods Pro, prior to trying to remove them. This will ensure that you avoid accidentally ripping the delicate end of the AirPod Pro ear tip.

Don't rip the ear tip off using the end. Make sure you gently, but firmly pull the AirPod Pro ear tip from the earbud close to where it connects.

It takes a little force, so don't be afraid to pull it out.

Align the new ear tip so that either the "L" or the "R" align with the black stripe on the AirPods Pro earbuds.
Snap in the new ear tip. (You should hear it snap.)
Fold back the silicon ear tip to the normal position.

Don't misplace the AirPods Pro ear tips you just took out. You never know when you'll need them in a pinch.
