Default Removing housings from clipons

I got the left side off, but how do you take off the right side? I'm thinking it's the single torx bolt on the underside of the housing - what size is that?

Yes it is small, it also goes right through the bar and into a nut on the other side, be carefull, the wires look very fragile, I don't know what size the torx is

It's a T8. BMW made the housings 3x more complicated than they had to be.
