Hi, new here. I'm trying to install a brake led modulator kit on my dad's 2016 MP3 500 since he saw i installed one on my GTS 300. I searched here and saw people say that the brake light wiring can be accessed behind the right rear panel. My question is, do I have to remove the top case mount and rear hand rail just to remove the panel? Any how to thread how to remove this panel on a 2016? Don’t want to risk breaking any tabs and such as I am notorious for this working on cars lol

It's not that bad to remove.
I installed the OEM Saddle Bags on my 2016 Sport, and you have to remove most of the Rear panels to do that.

I have not done it enough to rattle off the steps, but if you get the parts pdf you can see pretty much what you need to remove. It all starts by removing the rear rack, and then each side panel.
