Installing Bars on slim

I just finished installing Wild 1 chubbys 10 inch bars on my 15 street glide. It was easy to do because I followed instructions from a youtube video. My wife wants to 10 in bars on her slim. I have searched for videos, how-to sections, etc.....I can not find any information on installing bars on a 13 softail slim. Im not sure where to start. Do I remove the tank first? Will the stock cables be long enough for 10's, do I need wire extensions? Could someone please point me in the correct direction.

Thanks,
Brian

Remove the tank? There's no need to even touch the tank. Bars on a Slim couldn't be easier except for the internal wiring. And I'm pretty sure I saw 10" bars on a Slim at the dealer and they said stock wiring and cables will reach. Based on your questions, I'd suggest is job may be a bit much for you, but if you did bars on as street glide, you should be able to handle a Slim.
