Are the handgrips a one time use? The Rumble grips will have to ordered, VIN protected to allow time for dealer to get.
No, they slide off and 'clamp' back on. Only things you should need are a fish tape or chain to pull wires through and some dish soap. While the bars are on the bench.....is a good time to swap out the black switch covers for chrome ones.

Give Yaffee a call. They sell complete kits. I did mine myself over a long weekend. Their instructions were good and if you have the patience you can do it.

Just installed 575's on my 2012 ultra this last weekend, did the work myself wasn't bad just take pics and make diagrams of plugs and wires. Love them so far haven't been able to get any long trips yet I'm in Kansas weathers been bad. Hand position much better and still behind fairing plus the larger diameter bars just look better. Used all the same wires and cables.

I would do taller bars with more pullback. I did +2 sweepers and it helped as far as getting the bars closer to me but I always find myself wishing for more height on long rides because you tend to slump in the saddle when reaching your arms down toward your bars. I'm doing 13 cyclesmiths they have 8.5 inches of pullback and just felt right when I sat on bikes with them installed. I am only 5'6" tall and the 2 guys I know with the bars are the same height and say they won't ride a bike without them. Good luck!

Mr Dinny - I have LA Choppers 13" Prime Apes on my FLHTCUSE and they are slightly wider than Yaffee, and they DON'T allow fitment of the stock heated grips.
As for the wrist angle they are OK for me, but as I have not tried the Yaffee monkey bars, I cannot comment.

They look great. Wont need to worry about heated grips as my street glide doesn't have that option. Thanks Peggers

Yaffe 14" Monkey bars and love them. Note the added speakers to fill in the old mirror holes. You can never have too many speakers.

Yaffe 12" bars are the way to go. By far the most comfortable bars out there. IMO  8)
