Gauges came from http://prosportgauges.com/. You will also need the T connector to install the oil pressure.
Here is the tee you need:
Company name British American Transfer Inc.
Phone number (941)355-0005
Part number TPVW gauge tee 10MM x 1.0 $12.50
Some have screwed the 10mm male in to the block, screw the oil line with compression fitting from the gauge into the 1/8" NPT in the side and the stock warning light sender into the 10 mm female and done. Some have also had high pressure hoses made with 10mm male in one end and 10mm femail on the other to mount the 'T' elsewhere so it is not hanging directly from the engine block. I had a 18" hose made. Search the forum for more info on the oil pressure mods.
When you disconnect the factory gauges, the digital 'gas' and 'temp' come on the multi-function display. You must disconnect both for it to work.

After a few tries I found that only a 1/2 wave would work due to no ground plane. I used the Diamond HRKS stick on mount trimed down and stuck over the unused antenna mount location with the wire feeding into the opening. To make sure it stayed put I put some of the 3M tape activator on first. You can adjust the antenna angle to match the factory radio antenna. Had it off at the time of the photos. I'll post updates in the next couple days.

With the air filter kit, has your gas mileage increased since your install? Also, Has the CAT Bypass made anything significantly different?

Removing CAT gets rid of excess weight and LOTS of unneeded heat. I get about 25 to 27 MPG. I'm not sure what gave the most improvement as I did it all for improving airflow and getting rid of heat. MPG has never concerned me.

Keeps the cable from popping of the motor pulley. There were several different ideas guys came up with. The most common was drill a hole through the pulley and add a tie-wrap.
