I've looked through the shop manual and several forums and have not found an answer to my question.

I have an '01S with litronics. I seem to have a loose connection with between the light socket fixed in the headlight tray tower at the back and the plug on the headlight assembly itself. I suspect need to replace the yellow clip that holds the socket in place.

To do so, I'd like to remove the headlight tray. I've loosened the three nuts on the tray and lifted it off its base. As I pull the tray forward, I see that I need to remove at least one connection at the back of the tray. It's a black tube that attaches to the back of the tower on the driver's side. It is a different tube than the white looking breather tube that also attaches at the back.

Can anyone tell me how to disconnect this black tube. It looks like it is attached through clips or threads. I cannot tell. I've played with it some, but don't want to put more pressure on it and break the tray. The trays cost a fortune.

Thanks for any help you can provide.
