Default Gonna install 12" Wild 1 Outlawz

I have a 2015 Street Bob and i'm gonna install 12" Outlawz with internal wiring. Anything I should be aware of in the process ?

I've heard the wireplugs on the 2015 is small enough to fit through the handlebars, so you you should'nt have to disassemble them. Anyone that can confirm this ?

On my '15 low rider, the connectors fit easily. I know several others had the same experience, so I'd say it's confirmed.

Let us know how the install goes. I have the same bike and I've been considering the same bars for a while. The issue I've had is removing the turn signals from the handlebars. I'm not sure how to remove the wiring from the signal without just pulling on it so I can thread it back through the bars.

I'll let you know how it goes I'll look at those turnsig wires. I relocated my turnsigs. Was quite easy. You just cut the wires right under the switch housings and new wires are included in the relocation kit. The new wires are plugged with connecters under the tank. Took about an hour

I plan to put 12's on my S Bob as well. I haven't done much research in how the process works yet but these "connectors" are you talking about the wires that run under the gas tank?
Also, anyone switch to Poly Bushings? I've heard they take out a lot of high speed vibration. Any specialty tools I should consider for this job? Any tricks to help make running the wires through the bars easier?
Thanks!

I have the same bars on my 13 switchback. everything fits fine. Just unplug the wires from inside the frame and the plugs will run thru no problem, I used a nut and fishing line to run the wires thru the bars, made it simple.

Poly bushings increase stiffness/performance, and vibration...not reduce it. The length of your bars have a lot to do with it.
