Default 10 mm SE PHAT spark plug wires - need help

I have a 2011 FXDC Superglide Custom. Thinking of replacing my OEM spark plug wires with the SE PHAT 10 mm red wires.

Questions:

Will the new wires fit the OEM wire looms? (I think the OEM wires are 8mm?)

How do I remove the wire loom that is attached to the horn bracket?

Do the new wires come with new wire looms?

Thanks for any help.

Mike

#1. No they will not.
#2. Pull straight up on it.
#3. No, use a zip tie to support the new wires under the tank.

This is an image from last year of my Wide Glide; I took a different approach with the SE phat wires. The front is actually a bit short and I didn't care for the angle of the front wire so I instead routed it under the horn bracket so I could set the wires at right angles to the heads. I sleeved the phat wire with 2 pieces of 3/8" I.D. fuel/oil hose; I sliced the hose lengthwise so I could slip it on the wire to protect it from any abrasion. I've still got it set up that way, still looks better than how HD wants it routed and it's still working great

I used two two zip ties, one through the two holes in the bracket, pull it tight, cut off excess, then another through that zip tie and around the cable.
