I've been searching and haven't been able to find an answer, so I apologize if I missed this somewhere else in the forum.

I pulled the cover off my bike the other day in a bit of a hurry and snapped my rear right turn signal in half. I have a replacement on the way which should be here by Thursday, but I can't figure out how the stock turn signals come off. I'm probably overthinking this but I don't see any mounting hardware and every thread I can find is about replacing them but doesn't tackle the actual removal. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

You have to remove the tail plastic to get to the threaded studs and wiring connectors. T27 screwdriver for all fasteners. Remove pillion seat, then rider seat. One screw in between the two seats, two screws in the front of the plastic on the top and two more in the front on the bottom. Pull the plastics off and you can reach the signals easily.

Any tips on disconnecting the old signals? Got one wire off (gold) and the other one (silver) is being pretty tricky.

In related news the 1125r service manual on Buellmods appears to be corrupted.
