Default Iron bars

I have a question. My buddies wife wants to get a set of roland sands short stacks for his iron 883 as a surprise question is has anyone used these any opinions and do the cables need replaced?
Thanks

First - PLEASE, a little punctuation goes a long way, thanks.

Next - the bars feature a 6.5" rise, you are going to need longer cables. You can probably use the cables for the Harley mini-apes ($), or you can get the cable kit from Burly, but their smallest kit is for 12" bars, probably too long.
