Default Headlight Mounting Bracket Replacement

Not having much luck in the FSM or inquiries into our website on this one. I picked up a headlight assembly and the mounting bracket was broken in shipment. I want to use my old bracket but I can't seem to figure out how to remove the bracket from the headlight assembly. The only thing that holds the bracket to the rest of the assembly is where the wire for the headlight goes through the bracket. Don't see a bolt there. Something may be press fitted but I am not sure. Could use some help. Here is a picture of the connection.

After playing with it a bit, I realized that it just slips off when turned the right way. Here is what it looks like disassembled. Mission accomplished. BTW, I found the bracket (new) on eBay for $40 plus shipping a few minutes ago.
