Alright - dumb question - is there any way that I can swap the headlight without removing the tank and all that madness? I have the HD shell P/N 67704-03 Billet Headlight Shell kit thang - powder coated gloss black (courtesy of Joe Powder Pro).. It uses the stock lens and whatnot... Anywho is there a way to take apart the headlight connector that's inside of the bucket?
