When you take the rack off, you get 4 bolts, right? Once you have those, you remove the two side screws, which it sounds like you did. After that, you need to "spread" the fender apart to get the sides of it to clear the two side screw locations. You then need to "lift" the top of the fender to clear the rear/top rack screw locations. The plastic basically "snaps" onto the 4 screw locations, holding it in place. If you can spread/press it apart to clear all 4 at the same time, it should just slide right off.

 

Ah, that's what I thought. I figured it had to be some kind of tab-fit, but I didn't want to guess and put pressure on the wrong parts and bust something.

I'm right now trying to find an old PDF of a service manual to see if they have an exploded view of what you just described...but I'll definitely try that out, thanks!

Unfortunately, that link appears to lead nowhere. Thanks, though!

 

You have 2 choices:

1) google search for what you are looking for
2) chainsaw

Good luck.

BTW, I was just reminded that links to copyrighted materials is bad and has been a sore subject in the past. You might want to not post those sorts of links (like I did and then fixed it...).

 

Success!

Got the fender off, added the LED turn signal conversion kit. Wasn't hard at all once I knew what to do. Thanks all!

 

The Chainsaw did the trick?
