Any tips on how you got them out? They look like they are soldered in on my apex 460 headbasket
They are only soldered at two points. I used a small flat tip screwdriver and first pushed the mesh away from the lip that goes around the inside of the headbasket. Then I used wire cutters to cut around the solder joint. The result is quite clean. I was worried because I had heard of people using a Dremel to remove the mesh but it's really not necessary with this mic.
I didn't remove the mesh from the top of the headbasket because it looked to be soldered all the way around and I didn't think it would have much of an effect on the sound.
EDIT: I'll post photos of the headbasket today.
