So... i know there are some posts on here already. My 13 streetglide non abs with cruise is in pieces right now doing the same install. I ordered +6 clutch and brake and i ordered the namz wiring extension and tbw assembly from jp. I was never given an answer if it includes cruise control extension so i hope so. Also, i ordered clutch cover release gasket and clutch cable o-ring. You will need to drain trans fluid if you replace the clutch cable. Also order the snap ring kit for the control levers as mine were in bad shape. While it was apart, i went ahead and ordered arlen ness bushings to reduce vibration. Hope this helps.

I put the same bars on my 12 SG last year. Really you just need regular tools (wrenches, sockets) but you will also need torx, and hex bits( home depot sells a kit for $29.99) other than that, it really all just depends on you. I bought a kit that came with everything I needed( wire ext. cables, gasket, everything) Only thing I had to go buy again was the TBW from Harley, The damn green plug wouldn't pass the point on the bars. Best of luck, and take your time.

No I did not, They sell one extended, and one not extended. It was plenty long. I also had cut out the heated grip wires, as I live in Texas and figured I would never use them anyway.
