Question Windshield Gauge Pod Question

Got one gauge going in the A-pillar and the other two going in the windshield pod, and I'm laying everything out before I start installing. I noticed a couple gauges have "circuit boxes" that are wired inline. My question is this, for those that have installed their gauges in the windshield pod, will those circuit boxes fit within the A-pillar or do they need to be extended so they'll mount under the dash? I know it sounds like a dumb question, but I've not seen it mentioned in any previous posts.
Thanks!

The new Isspros that are a pretty good match to our stock gauges. Got 'em at Geno's.

I guess I'm a little confused about the circuit boxes
All I got was wires with mine.

I just installed those gauges (Boost and Pyro) that I got from Genos and I had to add 3ft. of wire between the gauge connections and the "circuit box" of the Pyro. I didn't try to fit the box into the a-pillar. Doesn't look to me like it would fit though.

Without looking, I think two of my three gauges have wires that run from the gauge to a small plastic box and wires from that box to the probes. That box is what I'm referring to as a "circuit box." They're not huge but not real small either, and I was wondering if they would tuck in behind the A-pillar or if I had to add wire so I could put them under the dash...

Di Procols are easy to wire up the Isspros have signal amplifiers and circuit boards does that help with you confusion

Thanks for clarifying. I didn't know the other gauges did or didn't have these "boxes." Also talked to Isspro to see if adding to the wire would be OK. "No Problem" I was told.

By the way, the brown truck delivered my Quad box today (thanks!) but I promised myself I'd install and finish with the gauges BEFORE I hook up the box
Thanks for the fast service!
