Default 10 inch apes on 2012 ultfa

Just ordered chubby Wo578, 10 inch apes for my 2012 ultra, just wondering how long should I extend the wires, I want to put them in there original position?
Was going to extend the wires before the bars arrive to save some time?

No need to extend the wires they have enough length from the factory and will work fine "as -is".

The wires are long enough to put back to factory placement.

All I needed on my 2011 was a +4" clutch cable. The brake line was good with a minor re-route on the neck.

Did you put the plugs back in the same place as from factory, up by speakers.

If you are referring to the wires, they are re-routed as well to provide for the higher bars. As long as they are tied up securely they will be fine.
