Default Softail Slim S Wire/Cable Extensions

Hello I have a buddy with a Softail Slim S the military style and he is wanting to put a set of apes on it. I am having a hard time finding a wiring and cable extension kit for this bike. I have seen a few with apes on them.

I appreciate any help.

I am putting apes on my '15 Slim now. I got every thing I needed for cables/wires from Carlini. Hope that helps out.

You didn't say how tall the apes are, but page 5 here has Harley part numbers for what he would need with 16 inch apes.

Aftermarket companies have them too, but seem to be a little slow on catching up their listings. May have to make a phone call or two.

Keep in mind his bike has a hydraulic clutch (specific to the S models) and throttle by wire (all softails 2016+).

Anyone who lists "2010 and up softail" or something like that isn't up to date with the last two model years.

No response from Carlini so I need another place to check. I see a ton of the Lowrider S bikes with The bars so I know the cables are out there.
