I have this one connection coming from the fuse box and runs down the driver side to the back within the electrical harness. How do I disconnect this? Nothing seems to pop open

This opens by gently prying up on the "tab" of the upper part and then pulling it off the lower part. I believe that connection runs to the rear driver corner and is a connection for a dome light if you have a hard top that has one. The other side connects to the headlight switch and is turned on by turning the switch until it clicks, turning on the under dash courtesy lights and the dome light. In my case, I have a soft top and no dome light. So I wired that to a replacement rearview mirror that has map lights in it. So tuning my headlight switch to the click turns on the under dash courtesy lights and also the mirror's map lights.

Yeah that harness are a real pain to disconnect. The way I got it off was prying it open with a small screwdriver in that hole TSB8C is point too in his post. You have to be careful, because it easy to damage the plastic. Good Luck!
