I bought a Rostock Max V2 around a year ago and it has been fun

My only issue is that each time I swap the nozzle on the stock V2 hotend, I break/damage all the cabling to the hot end.
The printer is currently down due to my latest shorts so I can not print any thing like a new bracket or such.
After my 3rd time damaging it(and blowing fuses due to shorts), I have decided to go with a different Hot end.
I am looking to the other people who have installed a E3D-v6 hotend for some advice on the upgrade process.
Below is what I believe is the process and parts I will need.
Unit to buy = E3D-v6 1.75
What voltage?= Assuming 12v
direct or bowden= Rostock max v2 uses the bowden, so I am guessing bowden is best choice?
