What would you have to do... (Summit Digital Gauges)

How hard would it be to make the Summit digital gauges work in a 87 Camaro?

I'm looking at the following gauges for example:

http://summitracing.com/parts/SUM-G2984/

http://summitracing.com/parts/SUM-G2983/

http://summitracing.com/parts/SUM-G2985/

If they wouldn't plug directly in, what exactly would be required?

Thanks.

the volt meter should be able to be wired without anything else. if you read the other to gauges, it say, "Notes Sending unit not included " which means you would probably need the sending units to, because the stock sending units may not send the right amount of ohms to the gauges which could throw off your signal giving you inaccurate gauges. with the sending units no problem, call summit they will know what you need.

click on the "suggested items" tab for the sending units on coolant & oil. volt gauge would tap into any 12v source when key is on.
