Default turn signal removal

I'm trying to remove the rear fender on my 2010 48 to get it painted as well. What is the trick to get the turn signal and license plate lights and wiring out?

Everyone keeps saying it's an easy 10 minute job, but removing the wiring is what concerns me the most. I have to put it all back together and don't want to mess up the wiring.

Damn! You're fast. It takes me fifteen minutes to jack my bike up.....of course that also includes the time it takes to get a beer from the fridge.

BTW, popping the fuses out of the clips is easy, putting them back in the clips is a PITA. I bet it takes you 20 minutes to put the fender back on.

Also, what did you do with your turn signal wires? There are no disconnects on my '94. I clipped wires and installed some connectors.
