Installing Gauges. Temp. Volts. Oil PSI HELP!

Hello there!

N my own opinion i think cars with gauges look awsome, specially if they are turbo or supercharged. I bought 3 gauges. Temperature gauge, Volts gauge, and Oil PSI gauge, but i have no idea where to connect them to. I know where to connect the power and ground, but that's about it. If anyone got a write up, or pics to where i should connect this please send them to me or lead me to them. Thank you very much guys

P.

if you open the fuse box, you'll notice a plugin for those kind of gauges...it says RICER in real big letters.

Coolant temp and oil pressure will require special adaptors for the senders... you should have done your homework first. The adaptors will cost about $30 each if you can find them... Try the search feature.

Unless your SC or turbo the gauge pillar is total RICE.

why'd you get a temp and volt gauge? Autometer gauges come complete with instructions, and if yours didn't come with any instructions just go to their site to download them.

but like others have said gauges without some kind of fi is pretty useless. Oil pressure gauge is useful though, NA or fi, but really what are the chances of looking at it just as the pump is failing?

lol, I love this shot:

love the cups screwed into the a-pillar housing. I'm gonna end up doing that with the boost gauge and shift light too. Does that series of gauges light up? I have the Cobalt series and they're too damn bright. I'm going to try a dimmer switch for them to put them to bed at night.
