You will know what I mean when when you go to disconnect the rear brake line from the ABS unit. It's a real pain.....But just take your time, be patient, and it will be OK. Haha. Just remember.... it CAN be done. Even with a fat fingered Fu%& like me. And.. it's totally worth it!

Did you have to install extended brake lines to accommodate the extended controls?
Got any pics?
