Searched and couldn't find what i needed.. (swap related so i posted here, sorry if it should be in the interior/elec)

I'm installing an oil pressure gauge and a water temp gauge..

they are both electric and were made by prosport.

My questions are... do i need to tap into things for the probes/senders or are there stock places i can bolt these into? Or..... should i tap the wires off of the stock sensors?

thats the way to go for a clean install for the temp gauge. you just cut your upper rad hose, put the apropriate sized adapter in there, and screw your sender into that.
for the oil pressure, if you wanna use your stock dummy light, get teh adapter dustin posted from tunertoys.
