Fender flare wiring harness help!

[Pig-Pen]

currently in the process of removing my Sport fenders to put Rubi fenders on. Disconnecting the electrical harness was a pita. Little plastic parts broke and then trying to yank it apart the wires pulled out. I was able to get ONE back in but the others are fighting me. Any tips to get them in and reseated? I have a can if wd40 lithium grease i can spray in but dont know if that will hurt anything or even help.

ok, i figured out the orientation has to be just right. seems they only go in one direction. still, its like trying to push a wet noodle through a piece of paper!

got one in so far. hopefully doesnt take all day to do the rest.

thank God for needle nose pliers! was able to carefully pull the wet noodles through the paper.

no lithium grease used. i googled and it would have been no bueno.

crisis averted.....for now....

now back to breaking clips..
