sport comp gauges


So I think i found a good deal on a set of gauges. Got the fuel,volt,oil,water,and boost for $100. Prob is they don't have the wires or bulbs. Were is the best place to get all the things to hook them up? The oil is mechanical so I will prob need copper tubing right? And I need options for mounting in a 94 vert. The outside measurement is 2 3/4". Pics of mounting would b great . U guys have some nice looking stuff and would like your opinions. My car is a street car so want it to look clean.

U can get the bulbs and other stuff on jegs.com or summit ... I think u need a sending unit for the fuel gauge. Boost u need the tubing and volts is kinda common sence. Water U can get a probe or a sending unit for electric gauge. I personal would not use the machainal oil because of the chance of a leak

Is it a fuel level guage or fuel pressure guage? If its fuel level youll have to double check what fuel level sender its made for. The different senders had different ohm ratings for full and empty and the guage needs to be the same.

Make sure the water guage is not mechanical. If it is and the copper tube is cut off it can not be repaired. I would also agree to buy a braided line for the oil guage if it is mechanical.
