Hi guys.  Quick question.  I have a 95 KZ1000p and I want to replace the bulbs in the rear turn signals, but I'm not very bright and I am not seeing how to get to the bulb.  Do I remove the amber cover to get to the bulb, or do I loosen the nut that connects the housing to the bar and remove the whole thing?  As always, thanks for your help.

You should be able to remove the amber covers, I would suggest soaking the screws with WD40  before trying to remove them

The copcycle rear housings are different from the civilian models. I think there are two screws that can be seen on the reflector housing that release the amber lens. The parts diagram is not clear on the matter.

Thanks for the replies guys.  I'm not seeing any screws on either the front or the back of the light.

Looking at the below it seems the amber cover may screw on with an"O" ring seal ?

I wondered about that, but the front lens and housing appear the same.

The front appear to have 2x screws (#220)

If you look closely, you'll see two small places on either side of the chrome housing to carefully pry off the lens.
