Default Apes on WG?
Putting the Builtwell 12" Apes and a 2" riser on my 2012 WG, I need about 8" more of cables.

I'm having trouble finding what lengths the aftermarket kits are compared to stock lengths.

Burly says they don't give lengths but think they're 12" kits should work.
Hate to go off of a I think.

Still looking, but was hoping somebody here knew what kit would fit.

TIA

Magnum Shielding and Motion Pro sell them as plus or minus over stock. A lot of people have reported that the kits often give too much cable length.
