I just did my bars last week and took pictures of the whole process. I haven't had time to label the pictures nor have I added any comments. I'm having my mirror holes filled and the inner fairing painted so it's not done yet, but you'll get the idea.
i have a quick ? for you , it looks like the handle bars are egg shaped (flattend}at the risers in the picture, i was thinking bout rolling my bars up a tad, but it doesnt look possible now.... is that the case, btw i have an 09 flhx.
As soon as I get back home I'll take a look and some pics for ya.

The bars are not egg shaped so you can rotate them up or down at will.

Q is .. is the TBW long enough do I need to replace? Thanks
It's long enough that you wont have to extend it. I extended mine and it ended up being really long. You will want to tape the green connector so it doesn't separate inside the bars. Make sure you tape up on the wires a little on both sides too.

I changed my bars without taking the inner off, but it would have been easier to just take it off. With everything that needs to come out, and the tight clearances, it is better to take it off.
