The water one should thread into the block (drivers side) or you can splice the wiring into the factory plug. As far as the oil gauge, my neighbor did a mechanical gauge and there was a port at the rear of the drivers side on the engine block he tapped into. If its an electrical one once again the factory sender is on the drivers side behind the intake (at least on my camaro it is) and just splice the wiring.
