I bought these last week and have not had a chance to put them on yet. One of the reasons was you said they worked great and they look great on your bike Matt. Killer looking sled by the way.

I saw a somewhere that some one bought them and extended the wires with apes on a roadglide. Not sure if I saw it on the other forum or where. I will keep my eyes open and post if i find it.
At the rate I am going mine won't go on till after the snow flies. I will follow up when I put my 14" f47 bars and install the grips, I will let you know about wire length. Unless someone beats me to it.

I installed a set of these a couple of weeks ago when I put on my khrome werks 2+2 narrow sweepers.
They are nice. I've already had the chance to ride in the 30s with them a couple of times. In my opinion, they don't heat as quickly, or get as warm as the plain black ones that were stock on my Ultra Limited.

I used the Namz extensions to extend all of my wiring (including heated grips) when I installed new Wild 1 bars on my 2016 FLHTK . They work great and the extensions installation is plug and play.

Its been a while since I installed heated grips, but I think the wire on grip to the other. Thinking that wire would need extended as well.
Im going to look up Namz and check it out though.
Thanks!
