Luserkid: Do you think you could answer my questions about guages in this thread?

Sorry to hijack, but I thought the thread might help the original poster as well.

if the water temp sensor is made for ur car, the sender should screw into the hole where the radiator drain plug is. then you just have to wire for the lights on the gauge i think. then find your oil pressure switch, the gauge should come with adaptors to tap into the line. mine didnt, i found these at home depot for under 10 bucks. other than that, just wire for the back light for the gauge. find something that turns on when you turn your headlights on, like a bulb that lights up a button on your dash. pretty simple stuff. dont twist and tape, solder and heat shrink connections to prevent further problems. goodluck.
