Headlight Bucket Wiring removal

I need to remove the cable harness from the headlight buckets.  Connectors on both ends of the harness are too large for the hole in the bucket.  I assume one has to remove the wire/contacts from the connector on the headlight side of the harness.  Just wondering if there is a trick to doing this so I do not damage things?

Thank you,

Corey

Of course. There is a notch on the side of the connector. If you put a small probe in there it will release the wires from the hard plastic plug

Here is a blue point wire terminal removal tool that i use . NPD and many others sell equivalents. You can get a idea what the release probes look like if you want to fabricate your own.
