bar risers/ elec. extensions?

[DMACK]

I am going with a 6 in. riser, my ? is how do I extend the electrical wires?
I got the throttle and brake cables with the kit. haven't seen any extensions for P-brake or elec. any advice would be appreciated.

i just cut my electrical and extended the wires, i put on a totall of 13 inches of rise, I removed the parking brake.

extensions

Thanks,Yamiman I was afraid that would be the case.
I was hoping for some kind of plug and play extension.
and removing the brake is no big deal (never used it)

I went 8" on my 98 srx i didnt have to cut any wires. I just rerouted them. you might want to try that first.

re route

I tried the re route, was too tight.
thanks for the suggestion.

When extending the wiring don't use butt connectors. Take the extra time and solder the wires together. Butt connectors will get moisture in them and corrode. They also can expand and contract with cold temps. Just a little corrosion can make the difference between starting or not. Not a good thing 50 miles from the truck. Solder and shrink wrap each wire. Does take more time, but could save major problems on the trail

I will be doing them exactly that way.
Thanks for the heads up.
