Default Passing Lamp Replacement

I had to lay her down last week and bent the passing lamp on the left side of my road king classic. I can't seem to get the lamp off. Will somebody tell me how to get it off?

Two allen head screws holding turn signal have to be removed. Then theres a nut under the assembly that has to be taken off and remove the wire. I usually cut the wire and use a butt end to reconnect instead of fighting the factory terminals. There is a special socket to adjust the lamp but you can also make one.

I believe it's a 9/16" nut but can't swear to it. Confirm what size the nut is and buy a used one at your local pawn shop. Cut a slot in it and place the wire in the slot when you take the nut off and put the nut back on.
