unplug the tail lights under the seat.

Remove the 4 bolts holding the struts to the bike.

Then swap everything over. You got 3 bolts per side holding the struts to the fender and 1 bolt per tail light... easy job.

In addition, I "think" you may have to remove the connectors from the signal lights in order to get the cable out - use a pin or grind a paper clip to a sharp point to help remove them. If you have a short memory like me - label which wire goes - Left n Right along with the the color pin outs.
