Default Turn Signal Disassembly

call me a rook. ive already taken a lot of things apart on my bike and changed parts around. but for some reason im drawing a blank on how to disassemble my turn signals so that i can send the wiring through my bars. really, i dont want to screw up my chrome by jacking around and not doing it right.

anyone got any help?

are they the bullet lights? If so, :

Use a nickel to pop off the lense
remove bulb
use a coat hanger hook to grab the small opening towards the inside bottom where bulb goes
gently pull, should pull out the reflector and rubber gasket
Twist wiring form backside to pull through connector
reverse to reassemble
