Cheap and good place to get Gauges installed?

Any one know of a good place to get a Boost, Air/fuel, and Oil pressure gauge put in? Anyone done this themselves and would like to lend a hand when I attempt to install them on Saturday? Any help would be great! Preferably east bay installers but anywhere is fine as long as they do a good job.

try to do it urself..its fun and easy just takes a while. Boost is easy u just need to hook it up too either the bov or the pipe from the intake manifold. oil pressure i think u just hook it onto ur drain plug not too sure about air/fuel since i don't have one..

Cool I checked it out, looks simple enough. Just need to go get that part from Subaru. Do you know where the 02 Sensor is or a Air/fuel ratio gauge or which wire from the ECU is the the oxygen sensor? what color is it?
