OK, what's the trick? I disconnected the wiring and plug is swinging free (unobstucted) and I removed the back four chrome 12mm bolts. Also removed the two 12mm bolts under the seat. Front two chrome bolts obviously don't connect to the mudguard. The damm thing just doesn't want to come free. Do you pull it up? Straight back? Drop and pull? It just seems to want to rock where the middle two bolts were connected. Already scratched the paint where the aft left hole is (unnoticible as its covered by the brace}. Don't want to scrape it up in a noticible spot. Shouldn't be this difficult. What's the trick?

Regards,

Tom
