Switch housing removal....HELP

[Jyonish]

Hello,
New indian owner, 2019 for 1200
Have owned pretty much all other makes, do most wrenching myself.
But for the life of me.....how do I remove the switch housings from handlebars?
Have the higher pro tapers from Indian I want to install and nothing I have fits screws to remove the switch housings,
T10 doesn't fit nor any hex i have.....so lost.
Annnnnnd beyond me why Indian would use such small svrews...
Please help, its driving me nuts

A T5 Star driver appears to fit well. I didn't try to undo it, but it felt snug.

Wow, a T5....will go see if I can find one. Have multiple torx sets and smallest I have is a t10, no clue a t5 existed

Just don’t dismantle them!!

You need to remove the grips, and then you will find an opening in the side of the switch cluster. Insert an allen key (2 or 2.5mm, can’t recall) to release the latch and slide them off in one piece.

yes, don’t take them apart.

OK, ok...yeah, was thinking needed to take apart to remove.
