I would also be interested in the length of the cables. If you have part numbers that would be sweet as well.

a couple hundred bucks if you go through people like drag specialties (call them and they will guide you).
FYI if you were to go to a HDMoCo shop they would charge you over a grand. It's time consuming and they charge out the a**!

Burly makes complete extension kits for apes. Fits perfectly....

The biggest bitch was the wiring job, the rest is pretty simple.
