Default Help with wire connector

A front turn signal mount busted on me and to replace it I have to remove the 3 wires from the connector. How do I do this. I have everything apart just cant figure out how to remove the 3 wires on the right. This needs done so the wires can slide through the mount bolt hole.

Cut them and then splice them?
I'm not sure there is a wire lock on that connector.

Do not cut them thats for amateurs. Buy the service manual, it explains how to remove in depth

Or use a paper clip or a small screw driver like the kind for glasses repair..you just need to release the clip.

Thanks everyone. No service manual or special too;. Used a flat head screwdriver from my laptop repair kit (I am an IT guy) to release the pins. now I am just waiting for the HD dealer to call me letting me know the part arrived
