Default Novello extension for 14" Gimps

I should order an 8" right?

Plan on doing it tonight or tomorrow so I want to make sure I have the right length.

I've seen that you should contact them direct for 07+, I have emailed them and not heard back. I'm going to try and call them to order tonight or tomorrow.

Can't wait to get home and get it all together!

Do yourself a favor and just get the 12" kit.
I got it for my 13" apes and was able to use it again for the 16" ones.
Better a little extra than not enough.
Just call them straight up.
Got mine the next day........

You might not need wire extensions with 14" Gimps. I have 16" Gimps and I had PLENTY of slack in the stock wiring. I ended up selling the wire extensions on ebay.

Gimps measure on the tall side - in other words, 14" Gimps will actually be an inch or two shorter than 14" apes of a different 'brand'.

I'm sure there are others with the 14" Gimps that could confirm.

I'm just looking for an easy install, if it won't make it any easier than I'll just avoid it

Is it worth the money for ease of install?

If so, yes

Depends on who you ask.
I suck at soldering wires and don't have the crimp tool to put the new connectors on my own wiring.
These are literally plug and play.

Found the number.

Why would you have to solder anything if the stock wires are good? I can't look at it to see, at the moment

Thanks for the help brother

Sorry, mentioned the soldering part if you needed to extend your wires.
