   you want it in practical manner.(making a diagram with the help of given strucutre)

   1. see, unplug you handset from the base station of the telephone set.
   2. unscrew the screw’s from the hardset inner side , and delecatly open it with minus screw driver, if body locks of both side of cover stick to eack other.
   3. check the color code of ear peice and mouth peice, as are in four color plastic enameld copper wire with screw lock heads.
   4. check the color code of telephone jack point pin code, and place it in front of the jack point of ground base without inserteted and assue which lines connecting which two of sides (as ear peice(4 ohm spk) and mouth peice/ 2 pin mic) are connecting. and uncover the telephone base station and sold there the 3 phase socket (as 1 mic and 2 stereo’s) Jack or seperately with flow out from telephone with soft lines as wires set while assembeled back the cover. 1 mono jack on mic color code lines soldering for mic pin of headphone and other on ear peice soldering connection on telephone main board (both line of head phone should joined as the telephone speaker out put has a mono line instead of stereo.

   now you have two options;

   1: ) either do a / two hole of the jack pin size with an electronic static push pull drill machine or miniature handy drill machine on the body cover where it suits while seperated with the telephone base set, but pre-check the internal side of cover weither the space is available after packing it back to the base station.
   properly insert it from the internal side of the cover and there are round locks for the mouth of jack you are installing, comming out side from the hole you made in the body cover lock it till tighten to the body as it was installed from the time of manufacture. do the same with second jack.
   pack it back the cover before checking that all required soldering are properly solded on the right one’s connection on the main board.

   1.A) you can do the same procedure application on the handset side of the wiring connection while opening it first to check the color coading (that where(either on mic or spk) what color of line are solded) you can sold the lines(wires) of the new jack for your head phone as same drill operation application on the body of handset of telephone. some set are small in size, so has lesser space available in the handset internal side to install and cover it back and screw it, so the base station has the space for the proper decent looking operation.

   or you can do all, stick the jack in decent manner on the out side body cover of telephone bas station with some super glue.

   Buy a new telephone. if you take it apart and dont know electronics you will end up purchasing a new one anyway, but you will learn a few things, so buy a new set and then take the other one apart so you can answer your calls while you break that one

   i don’t think the head phones will suit or match the devices, usually telephone devices uses mono speaker not stereo
