Not really sure if there are guides for this. Given that Sonos doesn’t suggest/want you to open their products, you’re unlikely to find an ‘official’ document. And given that the PLAY:5 gen 1 is so old, I suspect the only place to get replacement parts is by buying used devices (perhaps non functional?) online, and swapping the parts.

But as to how to actually remove/replace, I’ve no idea.

Maybe a different path, SoundSkins are dead easy and offer a lot of nice colors.

I'm too cheap to buy them so I made my own using inexpensive speaker grill cloth. $8 not $80 was nice.

to bad… ill look into some kind of skin. I wish SONOS would have made their devices and aseptically the meshes more serviceable.
