Default Installing Heat Demons on 2008 with DBW

Has anyone installed the Heat Demon hand warmers on a 2008 HD with Drive By Wire? If so, any help on how to do it would be great.

Thanks....

Default 08 RG with Wild 1 Bars

Wanted to install on my 08 RG, was disappointed to learn that the heat demons won't work because the inside diameter of the bars is too small.

Check last months American Bagger mag, they did a install on a 08 touring bike. The heating element wraps around the outside of the throttle sensors. Worked great
