You just push the little clip peice and it should come apart quite easily. I don't have an up close picture of the harness or I'de circle the peice that you need to push down and back.

its the single most hardest plug ive ever tried to unclip. i almost cried. but i got it.

with your left hand use a flat head to push up on the clip
with your right hand hold the clip down
then simultaneously push down with your right and push up with your left while yanking the clip apart to opposite ends
note - you will be doing all this in a bear hug position while crouching like a fookanese gangsta.

I spent 30%time of replacing headlight by the unclipping.

However, after I used thin head plyers, it took me 10 secs.

I tried this last night when swapping out my 04 lights with 06. THe driver side was easier as there was more room to work with. THe passenger side I hastled for about 10 min until I finally broke the facker. Since I swapped out to new lights, I did not car. When I put in the o6 lights, it seemed like there was alot more room to work with the harness...
