The temp gauge and oil gauge should come with senders. If they don't I'm not sure how you are gonna get them to read anything.

I think my autometer gauges required 2 power and 2 ground wires each so I just ran 1 wire from the ign spot in the fuse panel up to the gauge pod and tied all of the gauges into it. I also just ran 1 ground wire from a spot under the steering column to the pod and tied the gauges into that. It was easier than running a bunch of wires. Then its just the sender wires to hook up. The gauges should come with schematics that will help alot.
