handlebar wiring extensions
i'm looking to replace my stock bars with la choppers 10" bagger bars . 2016 Ultra Limited
i know i have to extend the wiring but i dont want to solder pins on the " raw " end . NAMS makes a plug and play kit as does KST Kustoms.
the NAMS kit is 18" long and includes the plug for fly-by-wire . ( not sure if includes heated grip plug . not mentioned in description )
looks like the KST kit is shorter but does NOT include fly-by-wire ( description states that existing wiring harness is long enough )
1) ive never heard of KST before today
2) i dont want to take it all apart and then find out that the factory harness is NOT long enough
3) Ive heard of NAMS ( buddy of mine used their kits years ago ) but what do i do with all that extra length of harness? and does it come with heated grip plug? ( either kit )
4) LA choppers says that the factory brake and clutch lines will work , but again , i dont want to find out i need longer lines after it's all apart.
additionally , will i need to replace the stock bushings , mounting bolts and clamp cover?
ive never replaced handlebars before so i want to get as much info upfront as possible. also , if i do bring it to a shop , i want to make sure the job is done correctly
any input would be greatly appreciated.
BTW , i'm in NY , Long Island area so if anyone has a recommendation on a good shop , that also would be appreciated.

I put 10" LA Choppers Twin Peaks on my 2016 Limited about 4 years ago. I cant remember length of Namz harness at the time, but thought it was only 4"or 8". I know it was short, but dont see shorter Namz options now.
While many find they dont need harness on 10", I remember I was glad i did have a little extra. Made things a bit easier for me.
