Question Gauge Pod Intsall for 95 Convertible

Hey guys, I just purchased a dual gauge pillar pod for my 95 vert.
My question is this: Before I purchase the gauges, I need to decide mechanical or electrical. Has anyone put a mechanical oil pressure gauge in the pillar pod?? How do you route the tubing and where did you tap into the block??

I was considering a nitrous pressure gauge also, (but they are a little pricey) also can anyone help with this??(routing and where does it connect?)

Any input into what combo of gauges and whether I should go mechanical or electrical is appreciated.

The car is relatively stock with MAC cold air kit, off road h pipe, MAC exhaust, underdrives and nx nitrous. Thanks alot, Mike.

there are people that will tell you only mechanical because they are more acurate, but electrical ones have really come a long way... and i dont fancy running hot oil behind somewhere in case it breaks...
with that said, either one would be fine.. the sending unit on the mechanical ones have the hole that you need to run the line.

I have all eelectricals in my pods, I remommend them because running a tube along side the pillar is going to be a pain! Take my advice and go electrical. If you dont your going to have some fun trust me
