Default Gauges

I didn't really know where to post this, so I'll post it here for all of my LT1 brothers. I going to be putting 2 autometer gauges in the console of my camaro. I'm thinking water temp and fuel pressure. They are going to be electric- full sweep for the fuel pressure and half sweep for the water temp (thats all they make in the Phantom series). I was just wondering how hard it is to wire these up and everything. I haven't done a lot of electronics, but I'm not stupid. I have people that can help me, but I want to do it myself. What do you guys think? How do these particular gauges hook up and do you think i can do it??

Yup, thats exactly what I'm getting. I think it gives the car a unique little racecar look, but doesn't overdo it, for a daily driver car.

I personally hate it when the gauges are mounted on the a pillar, although admittedly my Turbo Rx7 had 3 gauges on the a pillar.

The wiring is pretty straight forward. They include instructions that are pretty easy to follow. Here is a my install.
