Quick bars question

Hi gang, is there any reason a set of "fly by wire" ready bars won't work on my dual throttle '07 StreetGlide? I know you can't go the other way but I'm just checking to see if a set of 13" HD mini apes off a '13 ElectraGlide will fit my bike. Silly question perhaps but is the right grip any shorter due to the FBW mechanism? Anything else I might be missing?

Thanks for your time, be safe everyone. 👍

I found using a small linked chain, like the one you might have on a pull chain for a light bulb, makes it easier to pull the wires through the bars. Good luck.
