Ran around this morning for some wire (22 gauge in more than three colors is impossible to find, I ended up cutting up the old wiring harness to get what I needed), heat gun and other bits. Put some extensions on my gauge wires so they would reach under the dash, twisted/soldered the wires together and put heat shrink over the connections. Painted the bezel of the boost gauge to match the wideband gauge (decided to go with black), once that's dry I'll have both the gauges in. Just need to make the power connections. Got some info from a guy on MT.net last night concerning the relocation brackets, had to finally buy WinZip and got tired of waiting for them to send me my registration info so I took a look at the puzzle and put it together. I used the wear and corrosion marks on the brackets (and some common sense) and got it all in. I did have to cut some reliefs in the lower radiator support brackets, I just got done looking at the pictures the guy had sent and there were supposed to be two taper head Allen bolts for the one bracket which would have prevented me from having to do that. BRP truly did make it so you wouldn't have to cut anything up. The hardest part was bending the A/C dryer from in front of the condenser to beside it. I expect to get the rest put back together tomorrow, I have to make a run to get new belts as I want to get that all done before putting the radiator in. I did find out that neither of the intercooler pipes can be in place when putting the radiator in, it's that tight.
