This is too hard too understand.

You don't have to take the whole dash out to get the gauges out, just take the cover off the gauge cluster.

ok first try to word things a little clearer but i think i know wat your tryin to say you want to know if you take the chance of breaking anything wen installing guages...right? if thats wat your asking then the answer is no wen you install gauges you will just run wires or tubes into your engine bay.. when u get the guages they will explain how to install them and how to wire them up

If you get an oil pressure gauge, get one with an electrical sending unit. The mechanical ones have a tube with oil in it that runs into the cars interior. These can bust.

i had an electric oil pressure gauge and it was awesome. wish i had pics of the old car, but i had mine mounted to the right of the gauges, in the middle pocket on top of the dash. oil psi and voltage gauges fit perfectly there
