the window switch should come with instuctions but its pretty simple 1 wire to battery 1 to ground 1 to the tach and one to the solenoid.the gauge should screw right on the bottle with the proper fittings.if you dont have them try a local speed shop they should have what you need.

The pressure Gauge all depends on the type you want.

The small screw on bottle mounted gauges are affordable but you cannot see the pressure unless you open the hatch. These gauges can read off by alot but are not to bad for refrence use.

The next type is the hard line nitrous pressure Gauge. Simple to mount but the hard line going to the Gauge makes it fitting inside the Gauge pod difficult and after you buy all the little fittings and line to make it work the cost is the same as an electric unit.

The best is the Electric pressure gauge. Electric guages use a sending unit mounted at the bottle or in the engine bay. Simple to mount, very acurate and if you use a dynotune gauge you can use a round or square gauge. Checkout all our gauges at DynoTune Nitrous

Whoa! Hang on, you should never hook any window switch directly to the solenoid. They can only handle small amounts of current. You use them to switch relays off and on that switch power to the solenoids.
