Default Step By step handlebar cables/ wiring

I want to add 14 inch burly apes. I have the bars and I need to know if I need to buy all these extra wiring extension kits, or can I run with the stock equipment.Any one with the info or where I could find it would be greatly appreciated. Trying to get the most bang for my buck......HELP!!! LOL

order the bars first, then try and mount it the way you want, and see if it fits... not much can be answered if we dont know what kind of bike you have... like my 08 Super Glide... to go up to 9inch straight risers and an MX style drag bar, i need longer cables and such, but if i had a street bob that had longer cables to begin with because of the mini apes, i wouldn't have to. we need more info before we can help. Friendly advice.

Default Front Brake switch

Make sure you put a spacer in the front brake lever before you pull off your front brakes from the handle bars. Easy to break the switch.
