What you took a pic of is the disconnect. Just push the tab and pull apart.

What @Shooting or Jeeping said.
Mine was a bit difficult to get disconnected. I had to use a small screw driver to press the tab down and pull really hard to get it apart.

Nothing will happen, it will hurt nothing.

Then you can't use your FOG LIGHTS---Heh Heh--

You can disconnect the battery when you're doing any rewiring/messing around with components/adding lighting, but with just CONNECTORS NO PROBLEMO-

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but Iā€™m switching to an oem steel front bumper and am having the same issue not being able to disconnect the fog light wiring harness.

Which part of the male ā€˜tabā€™ do you push down with a screw driver?

Iā€™ve been working on this for 20-30 mins and cannot figure it out. I also donā€™t want to break any parts of the tab or harness, since Iā€™ll be moving the harness to the steel take off.

I struggled with this same thing. You have to press down where you see two humps on the casing and at the same time pull the two casings away from each other.

Pushing down on those humps lowers the catch shown in the second picture allowing the two pieces to unlock.
