Default Folks with quick detach Tour Pac

I bought my bike used, and it has a quick detach Tour Pac. I started to take it off one day just to see how it looked, but I couldn't find where all the wires disconnect. It's pretty big when you're standing there holding it, so I didn't look very long. Can someone tell me where the wires might be connected.
It's an Ultra, so I have brake and tail lights, speakers and 2 antenna wires to deal with.

....... may be under the seat, or behind the left side cover. Follow the wires before you heft the TP .....

Depends what the PO did when he made it convertible. There may be no quick disconnects in which case you will have to disconnect the wires to the speaker pods, antennas and lights at the tour pak. Then coil all the wires under the seat. Or there maybe added plugs under the seat which will eliminate the excess wiring.

Do a search on the forum. There are a few really good how to posts about this.

I did the conversion this summer. I also added fairing antennas so I don't have to deal with the externals and made the lower fairings detachable for when I go in Ultra Street Glide mode. You can also add a detachable backrest or change the seat and go solo or badlander style.

What year is your bike. If it is 2006 or newer, the speaker connection is just inside the pod. Gently pull the wire out a few inches and you will see it. All the other connections you will see when you remove the TP liner, they are inside the TP. Unless the previous owner did some modifications and put plugs under the seat. Did you look there?

I put connectors under the seat for everything including the antenna leads.
