How do i install an oil pressure guage?

[mazdamp3_18]

I am picking up my oil pressure guage today and i was thinking of getting the guage pod but i dont need 3 holes for guages. i think i just might buy an oil temp guage and i am probably going to make something to mount the two guages in the little cubby hole we have under the sterio. how do i hook up an oil pressure and oil temp guage?
anything would help.

I'm probably wrong, but I remember heard that you'd have to tap into the oilpan to connect the sensors. With Subywan's Defi guages, there is an adapter that sits between the oil filter and it's seating. The adapter has 2 holes in it where you'd connect the sensors, so Defi came up with a safe, "no brainer" way of connecting there sensors. I wish the made a kit for the MP3 or Protege's.

so does that mean i should get an electrical instead of my mechanical guage?
