Default Harness on top of transmission - Removal

Any idea how to remove this, those bolts look almost impossible to get to. Do you drop the trans first to get an angle?

I'm not sure what you attempting to do or the year of you car, please put it in you signature. To me it looks like a 97 and I assuming your trying to remove the transmission. It looks like you still have the throttle body on. I found it makes it a lot easier to get the transmission out with it removed on the xk8s. What I did was to remove the 2 10mm bolts that hold the bracket and leave the harness connected.

There are two bolts holding the harness in place. I think it took me over 2 hours to get those out. Just working from memory, I think the left bolt is better removed from below going over the transmission and the right bolt can be reached from above. You have to use a 1/4" drive because space is next to nothing
