Here's some pics of the lower fairing panels removal, and some additional bits.
The two lower panels must be removed to remove the side panel.
The front lower panel has four screws, two underneath, two inside the radiator opening (there are three screws inside the opening -- remove the top and bottom -- middle stays):
Note that at the top rear of the front lower panel is a ~1" tall post that fits into a rubber grommet in the side panel. While relatively easy to get the right front lower down/out, with the optional fog light it is difficult to get the left front lower down/out without breaking the post -- go slow and don't apply bending forces to the post as you pull the panel down, and it will eventually come out.
The rear lower fairing has three screws, two under the glove box door, and one at the front:
Note the lower has a hook on the top, so the bottom of the lower must be pivoted outward to release the hook from the panel above:
The fairing side panel has seven screws around its periphery, one at the top and one at the bottom of the turn signal, one under the air deflector, two on the rear (rider) side of the panel, and two along the bottom of the panel:
