Turn signal switch wiring question

How do you remove the wires from the white plastic holder on the turn signal wiring on a '69 Charger?

Is there a special tool to disengage those tiny metal tangs ?

Probably is, but I've always found a nice tiny jewellers flat screwdriver works. Pull back gently on the wire, while carefully prying the tab with the screw driver.

I just tried that.

For almost an hour. :brickwall:

I was starting to mangle the plastic.

Good thing I was trying (practicing) it on a spare junk C body one I have.

Maybe I'm prying in the wrong spot ?  :shruggy:

Got it. :coolgleamA:

My smallest screwdriver wasn't small enough.

I rooted around in the tool box and found one that was even smaller.

That and a more powerful pair of glasses  :scope: did the trick. :2thumbs:

Thanks, birdsandbees. :cheers:

Eye sight with age sucks...  I have to put on 1.75 cheater glasses to TIG weld now, so I can see the bead!  :lol:

Glad you got it apart..

Those wire end terminals are available, but only from one vendor that I could find....and you would have to have a special crimp tool to attach the end terminal....which I have also
