A-Piller gauges question

I got a full a-piller gauge pod w/ boost air/fuel and oil press. I wanted to know what anyone else with this set up did to run the wires and hose so they are hidden. Did you have to take your whole dash apart or is there an easier way?

Thanks

you should just be able to feed the lines and wires into the dash from the bottom of the Apillar when you remove it...no??

open the panel on the side of the drivers side dash, mount the pillar, and drop the wires in from behind the dash.

thanks, i put it in today, took about an hour. I ran all my wires and put in the three gauges. looks good. I still need to hook up the the wire for the air fuel (not really sure where it goes, directions suck) and i need to hook up the wire that goes to the oil pressure sensor that came with the gauge (dont know where that thing goes either, shitty directions). But all gauges have power, light and the boost works as well, except my kit isnt going in till next weekend, so im staying in vacuum the whole time.

Did any of you have a hard time fitting the apiller properly. mine seems a little small, are you supposed to put it over the old one, or take the old one out and replace it completely with the gauge pod?
