Go with Magnum Shielding. They cost a little bit more, but their quality is unmatched. You won't regret your decision.

Check out Namz (www.namzcustomcycleproducts.com) for the wiring extension. Doesn't get any easier.

If you decide to go with LA Choppers, look them up on Amazon, I got em for $40 cheaper. I think they came from Eastern Performance. I have just ordered so much stuff from Amazon, and never had 1 problem.

They will be here tomorrow so I can't speak quality yet.

I have the burly kit and absolutely love it. I would suggest getting the 14" kit. I went with the 16" kit on my 16" apes and have ALOT of slack in all of my cables. It doesnt look bad, but a couple inches shorter would have been good. The burly kit has EVERYTHING you need and is real easy to do. Especially with the electronics because it comes with the quick connect bullet ends. Good luck and happy shopping.

Burly kit is junk but works. Mostly wayyyy to long and very cheap. Clutch cable gets sticky fast at least in my experience. Plastic sheathing starts cracking after awhile. I'd reccomend the LA choppers over it all day. but I prefer Barnett or magnum cables.
