Question spark plug wire replacement

I have ordered new wires for my 2012 limited.. Fuel motto , good deal.. now I can not find any information in manual for installing,, I see a few clips... even one on the heat shield.... do I really have to remove tank or is there a simple what??? I;m stumped and don;t need wires failing due to being installed wrong....

Nah, you can do it with the tank on. My dyno guy did it before he ran my bike.

It'll be tight to get your hands/fingers where the clips are, but you can do it with the tank in place.

+1 on not needing to remove the tank. You can slip your hand under the tank and pull out the clip.
I replaced my wires with a set from here:

If you have fat fingers, just remove the rear tank mount, and slightly raise the rear of the tank to make room.
