back turn signals

Simple question..does the back turn signals have a clip on the end that releases them from the wiring harness. I tired to change out my turn signals but cannot get them to come off the harness. Seems like the ends are just really stuck on there, someone told me at work Beamers have a small clip to release it, will I don't see any clip.
yours truly in frustration...

Strange, my 03 800 has bullet connectors for the rear turn signals. You should be able to pull off the whole Terblanche tail tongue complete with the turn signals. Take the seat off and look for four bullet connectors, they may have labels like D for right and S for left. You need to pull each of the four bullet connectors apart, each signal carries a hot wire and a black ground wire. Then you should snake them out. Make sure the key is off.

My '00 900 and '05 620 had the exact same signals and connections. Both are the bullet type connections, two wires/two connectors per light with the front and rear being identical, save for the longer stalks of the front ones.
Got photos?

I took it all apart..replacing beer tray lights etc. They are the bullet connectors where the tail light end of both wires slide into two different other metal casings on the wire harness. It just won't come apart at the connectors, it's like their welded together or something. I just parked it outside in the sun to try again. The weather warmed up, the other night I was taking a screw driver to try to pry it apart with no luck..

Photos would help, but if they are the OEM bullet connectors with clear plastic sleeves they pull apart. They could be corroded together and could use some penetrating lubricant (got Kroil?), a twist and pull.
