Look down by the oil filter you will find the stock sending unit. you can either swap out the stocker for the after market one and bypass the factory gauge or tap the aftermarket one onto it like this..



when i did mine I removed the stock sendor and ran the aftermarket one.

or junk yard

if it's an aftermarket gauge then try summit or jegs. If it's factory then parts store or if you use above company for extension then..
