Things You'll Need:

Cut or strip 1/8 to 1/4 inch of plastic from the ends of the earbud plug and phone cord. Leave the wire exposed.
Solder the ends of earbud wire to the phone wires. Also solder the earbud's plug to the other end of the phone cord. Your secret agent earphones are now taking shape.
Wrap any exposed wire with electrical tape the same color as the phone cord.
