The manufacturer should have supplied instructions, or would possibly have some in PDF version on their web site. I've always gone through autometer and that's how they do it.

i have faze gauges, and the instructions are very general. they only deal with suppling power to the gauge. they didn't come w/ specific instructions and their site doesnt have anything on installs.

Yeah, the voltmeter is cake to install, but the oil pressure may be a little trickier.

Was the gauge sold to you with a car-specific installation kit? The oil pressure sender should probably be put in place of the stock oil pressure sending unit, but that would more than likely throw a CEL....

I wonder if your sending unit has the same impedence as the stock unit and you can just tap into the wires???
