i fear mechanical oil pressure gauges......that is actual oil running to the inside of my car, no way, i good with my electric gauge.

i assume you have the AFR sensor to go with the gauge right? or is it a normal narrowband?
voltmeter is straight forward, connect to any 12v power source that is nut under any load (closest to battery the best)

X2. Agreed.

I hooked up my own volt gauge. Brand is APR.
Power went to the accessories wire from the harness which is really your ignition....i.e what makes your radio come on when the key is in the 'On' position.
.....and well ground it off anywhere.
