removing the damn wing...

im removing the stock S5 wing to install my RE-amemiya wing. and theres two bolts, one on either side that i dont know how to remove.

theres the two 10mm nuts on the rear of the wing, and the two screws on top on the sides of the wing. and on either side in between those, theres something... not sure what it is. i can get my hands on it, and its neither a nut or a bolt. do i pry it off?

no guesses, only reply if you have removed these...

Theres a large plastic screw on both sides that you need to take off. You can use your fingers for it. That should be what you're talking about.

Use a mirror to take a look at them. As I recall, there is something you need to twist from underneath to release the fastener. Don't pry on them! Take a look at the parts fiche and maybe you can see what I mean.
