Red face gauge install question?

hey guys, I got the issopro gauges with the triple cluster mount above the mirror. Im looking at putting them in right now and Im not seeing enough wires to pull the egt and tranny temp wires to go from above the mirror and travle under the headliner and through the piller so I can mount the amp boxes under the dash. Is there suppose to be extra lead wires to add on that I didn't get?
Is there anyone else that has put gauges in the pod above the mirror? I cant seem to get the nut on the back of the last gauge to hold it inbecause there is no room, I already had to cut the bolts off the back of the gauges to get them to go all the way back! Is there some trick to getting them on minus cutting the back of the pod to access them?
Thanks!

I have the gauge pod by the rearview mirror and I didn't have a problem with the fit, plug and play with mine.

If the wires from the gauges to the amplifier boxes are not long enough, you can purchase extension cables, $5.79 per gauge.

how did you clamp the gauges to the pod? did you just slip it in and not use the clamps that came on the gauges? I can't get my fingers in there to get the nuts on the bolts for the clamp!

The gauge attaches to the windshield with transparent velcro. My gauge pod holes are snug enough to hold the gauges and mine has rubber bands that help hold them in the pod. I also had to cut off the bolts.
