    @@djkilpatrick5256 I used wire lube on the cables to pull them through the bars and a trick I saw online was to use a shop vac to suck the string through the bars in order to pull the new wires through - Worked like a charm. The main harness was a little tricky to pull through the front but with some patience it eventually came out after I watched this video and lowered the rear end to access the panel under the fender. PS - take a picture of the wire harness connectors to make sure the wires go back in the correct place...

    Just bought a set of 14" prewired ape hangers off ebay and was hoping someone posted something on youtube to give me some pointers. I think I'm mechanically inclined enough and confident I can do this with a little instruction. I used to wrench on my older bikes all the time but I'm real sure that my 2008 Fat boy is going to be a bit more challenging to say the least. I am glad to see you guys posted something. I haven't begun my project yet but I'm sure this will be a huge help. Here's the best part...Ironically, I purchased my pre-wired bars complete with all the necessary cables from an organization called Hill Country Custom Cycles. Maybe you've heard of them. I'll let you know how it turns out.🤞

    I got a 2000 dyna wide glide and I'm trying to to put 16 inch meat hook ape hangers on it and for extension cables I'm only seeing wire kits to do it one by one but I found a couple sets of handlebar control switches with the wires that have the connector pieces like the ones in the video so I didn't know if I could buy the handlebar control switches with the connectors or if I needed to buy the wires and do it individually cause the person I bought the bike from cut them and tried to solder them and I don't think they knew what they was doing trying to get help to do it the right way
