Can't see your model listed? Use a similar speaker with the same skin type for the basic fitting method. Shapes, controls and cut-outs may differ, so always use a skin made for your exact device. Clear skins require separate instructions.

Before you start

Check the generation

Confirm the exact Echo Dot generation and coverage in your order. Keep unused pieces on the backing while checking their positions.

Unplug and clean

Disconnect the speaker and follow Amazon's cleaning advice. Keep moisture away from microphone and speaker openings.

Prepare your space

Use clean, dry hands and a stable, well-lit surface. Watch the video with your supplied fitting instructions nearby.

Fitting your Echo Dot skin

Use the video for the exact positioning and order.

  1. Check the reference points

    Compare control and connector openings with the intended edges before pressing. Do not stretch the skin into position.

  2. Apply progressively

    Follow the backing-removal method shown, smoothing gradually around the intended surface.

  3. Finish the curves

    Use gentle warmth only where specifically instructed. Do not use a heat gun or overheat the speaker.

  4. Inspect the openings

    Keep microphone holes, speaker grilles, controls, indicators and connectors unobstructed.

Installation questions

Should I cover the speaker grille?

No. Fit vinyl only to the intended exterior surfaces, keeping acoustic openings and microphones clear.

What if the seam or edge will not align?

Check your Echo Dot generation and the starting position shown. Do not stretch or trim it on the device. See our troubleshooting guide.
