Need a little help

I'm taking out the cars wiring harness to start sanding and painting and what not. but i can't figure out how to get this plug out. It's in a tight spot for my hands, so any help would be appreciated. It's the plug for the harness that runs through the firewall on the drivers side.

Go inside the car and look under the dash at the firewall on the left side. There will be a connector with a lot of wires going through it. That is connector C100, there might be a plastic cover on it. Remove the cover and you will see the bolts that hold it together. Remove the bolts and it will come apart.

P.S. Disconnect the battery first or it will be like the 4th of july in there if you touch the wrong wire.

Remove the cover in the engine bay, under it will be a single bolt through the center of the connector (10mm) unscrew it and remove the connector. You may have to pull the connector as you unscrew the bolt to get it all the way off. You can then either cover the connector sticking through the firewall (tape..etc) or go inside the car and remove the screws holding it in place and remove it.
