Default 10 inch Tallboy bars for batwing

Help needed...

2016 FLHTK Ultra Limited with factory heated grips.

I am considering changing the stock OEM (8"?) bars to a 10 inch bar and I want to keep the heated grip option.

HD specs for the 10" Tallboy bars (part # 55800591) has a blurb that indicates the bars are not compatible with accessory heated grips.

Has anyone installed these on a 2014 + FLHTK, and were you able to keep the OEM heated grips operable?

Thanks,

Jeff
