Default removing throttle bracket

got a chrome one for the series 1.

but being a complete tool today i cant get my old one off.
It had the black bracket holding it on and looks like you have to press 4 little tabs down tto get the throttle bracket off.

any ideas for quick removal?

Iirc, that how it comes off. Bit fiddly but will come off. Will have a look tomorrow at mine if you don't sort it.

Ooh..have you undone the bolts?? Sure there's two bolts at the top?

yea their is 2 bolts holding the actual bracket on, easier to unbolt them, unclip the cable from the throtle linkage and then it gives easier access to unclip the cable from bracket, need to do this to swap them anyway.
