Ok, I removed the wheel and wheel well to better access the rubber access port. I did this because I don't want to remove the front end again if I don't have too. I found the inverter to the bottom left of the light housing by following the red and black wires that exit the housing and connect to the parking lights. I pulled the red/black wires from the inside out (the ones that attach to the parking lights). Using my finger, I found the very corner edge of the and inserted a screw driver next to my finger to pry it from the double sided tape. I tore a small piece of paper and stuck it to the 2 sided tape because it would easily stick to anything it touched when moving it around and I would have to pry it again. Once the piece of paper was on, I tried to move the inverter in every direction I could try to attempt to get it out of the portal but it would not come out. The inverter is too long. So, I chose to cut 2 slits from the opening port to the left edge of the light casing creating a "C" flap. By slighting bending without breaking the C flap, the inverter popped right out. Before I cut it I concluded that it is much easier to use a plastic filler for the cuts than taking off the front end and putting the damn thing in the oven. From the pictures you can see the inverter, it's connection, the cuts I made etc.

So, Todrules, does the connector shown with the inverter (pink and white wires) match the Oracle inverter connector you bought? I ask because the Oracle picture on AAC shows 2 connectors.

Thanks,
Vince
