For the oil pressure you need a VDO pickup, they typically come in 3 bar and 5 bar. You have to watch the thread size. I believe you have SAE, not metric. You can find a brass tee or angle at your local Ace hardware. You have to mount the oil pressure sender sideways; straight out hits the manifold. One wire goes to light, the other to gauge.

For voltage all you have to do is tie into a hot wire. If you have an ammeter you have to run the alternator output through it, I believe. Ammeters are less common, and I doubt they are on the GT gauge cluster. Maybe on the Rally one.
