Just a quick tip for running wires through bars, when I did mine I took a piece of braided string and attached a little fishing weight to the end (the kind that pinch on) dropped that through the bars and then tied the wiring harness to the end and pulled through.&nbsp\\; About 5 minutes on each side and wires were through.&nbsp\\; Good luck

You can also use a shop vac to suck the string through before pulling the wires. Works great.

ORIGINAL: GentlemanBiker

Are you planning on running the wiring through the bars (assuming they can accommodate it)? If you are, most places estimate 7.5 - 8.0 hours of labor to install bars with internal wiring. If it would take a mechanic that long, then it would probably take someone who isn't into that stuff twice as long. Does anyone's experience indicate otherwise?

I am no Certified Mechanic but it didnt take me close to 8 hrs.&nbsp\\;

You can do it, I am rooting for you
