Default Throttle by wire......

I installed my 12" monkey bagger bars today. Pulled all wires with no issues and got it all back together.

The question I have is with the TBW wires. I know there was one set of wires with the green plug. I heat shrinked that plug so it wouldn't pull apart in the bars. The other plug on it, was a black plug with 2 wires. Since this plug was going to hit right at the height of the bend in the bars, I just removed the plug and soldered the wires together. Worked great. Now I just for the life of me can't figure out where that plugs back into!! Or does it? I fired the bike up a few times and everything works as it should...........What the hell is that 2 wire black plug for??? And where does it plug in??

Its for heated grips. Since i live in FL, and i'm pretty damn sure I'll never need them, I cut that plug off and taped off the ends when I did my monkey bars.

I'm copying this on every post about Monkey Bars to see if I'm missing any tricks. I just tried to run my internal wires in my 10" MBB, what a pain! I finally got the switch wires through BUT there is no room for the TBW harness. I followed the directions to a tee but tomorrow I'm pulling them and starting again. I used wire lube. I'm wondering if instead of only one harness it might be easier if I broke them down to at least two. I've done internal wires before but I that sharp angle is killing me. Any suggestions or tricks?
