well i was working on it for bout 4-5 hours yesterday.. I brought the sunpro mini triple white face gauge kit and copper tubing. i only installed the oil psi and volts, cause i have no place to tap the temp gauge into, so i left it out.. im quite happy so far way it all turned out :yahoo:. the stock oil sender was the most pain in the ass, due to where its located.. Well i made cuts to mount them in the little floor cup holder in the part that covers that control module, it had just enough room to clear, also had to take out some of the plastic structure. then i ran my copper lines threw the passager side floor board hump, and up to the oil sender (down and up). also had to go out and get 2 little o rings to go around the gauges to feel the slight gap in between the plastic and the gauge..

Well i got to run the volts and light wires today as u can see in the picture. it shouldnt take me too long to do.. the oil psi runs at 60 cold idle, but when its warmed up bounces just off 40-45 on idle. full reving (5k) barely goes pass 80.

thats a really cool place to mount them. looks really clean and well done too
 
thanks

okay heres the rest of the pictures, i just got everything back together and done, the lights i taped into my dimmer wire so the gauge lites dim with the dash lites, its the top wire on the controler for anyone wanting to know.. the volts gauge is on the main ignition plug, its the grey wire with a white line.

heres how i routed my copper line, its under the floor board tied up, u can see it running up to the tee (all on the passager side)
