Installing bars question

Installing some MBBs right now. Do you all extend wires before fishing them or after?

When I installed my MBB 12", I ran the wires through the bars first then extended them once they were through the lower portion of the bars. Seemed to work well.

Hope this helps

Thanks. Fished one side. Other giving me fits. Gona chill for a few and drink a bottle of water. Damn it can be frustrating on the last bend when you pull the wire out of the shrink tube right there at the end.

Good Idea! Throwing $hit almost always ends badly. You'll get it!

They're wired now. Left side was the hard one. Now to go ahead and finish the rest. Gona be a while. Have not even started with cables or extending wires. Need right get some beer and more brake fluid first. And I am not sure but might have ordered wrong bushings. Fixing to look and see.
