i would use the senders that come with the gauge. What ones are they?
As for the gauge, all you need it to first figure out where to mount them. Pick up a roll or red and one of black and one of yellow wire at the parts store. About 20 gauge will work fine. You may need cripmper/strippers and a small assortment of crimp on terminals.
Red for power, you can tap right in at the fuse box by finding a circuit that shuts off with the key. I tapped mine into the line that i installed for my aftermarket head unit. The black for grounds just needs to go to a good bolt that goes through metal. Near the steering column is a few. Run the yellow wire to the sender for the gauges.
