First off.... I know the danger of burning them up doing this, & I'm the only one who rides my Apex, and I'm smart enough to not turn them up too far, or leave them on low putting extra load on the resistor. So, I don't want any lecturing.
What I am looking for is how to do it. Where are the wires & which ones need to be changed/spliced. Pictures would be awesome too. I searched for this & came up with nothing.
Thanks for any & all help in advance.

I just changed mine out. I have the updated wiring so you could just plug and play. PM me if you are interested in it.
I have had the harness hooked up since i bought the sled,maybe 200mi in or so.now i have 9000+ mi no issues! i also foamed the inside of the bars to help hold the heat.usually 2 bars will do .have had them up all the way for a few minutes ,but you will turn them down ! (HOT) my heated gloves are nice for the times when we stop and watch sleds go by taking a break..gloves will always be warm when i put them back on! 
Have buddies that run Rocks kit and it works ! i just keep mine original for now.

Thanks for the help guys.
After reading/skimming thru the 46 pages thread, I came to the conclusion to just order the new(er) style harness & not f^ck around cutting & splicing on my own.
It was $18 from Port Yamaha.

It will take a couple minutes ,but they will get warm or hot ! Rocks kits get warm right away!
To some this is very important/
Harness is the best approach ,cheap easy plug and play

This is what I used. It's a Phazer part#- http://find.partzilla.com/?r=t&q=8GK-82 ... 0+&x=0&y=0
This is where I got the info from- http://www.ty4stroke.com/viewtopic.php? ... &start=660
This is the cheap alternative. The Yamaheater is the best option.

2007 and up bars and grips with Yamaheaters is about as good as it gets. Th 06 bars have a small heated grip and the aluminum hooks suck alot of heat out of them. The full heated hooked will keep your pinky fingers warm.

Can't wait to update. I have suffered long enough. I used to just put on gauntlets when it was really cold out, but they restrict movement when riding at a "brisk pace" lol.

Don't leave the setting on high. I usually run on 1 or 2 bars. 3 bars to warm up then it gets to warm. I would think things might melt if you leave it on high for to long!!theCATman said:apex55 said:

I have an 08 APEX. Would the hand warders be wired in series like the 06 APEX the OP talked?
