Hi mate . . .(everyone correct me if i'm wrong??) :o:

The battery goes to one of your live wires, preferably your ignition live on your steering coloum and connect the other to a good earth.

Oil temp . . there are several options?? if you have an oil cooler then there are a couple of adaptors that you can buy ( I know Demon Thieves sell them) that connect onto the hoses (again you have an option of putting i before the oil runs into the cooler or after) another option is a sandwich plate (but I'm not sure if they do them for the E30's??), that goes onto your oil filter which has several adaptors for connecting to your oil temp guage.

Engine temp . . I really dont have the foggyest sorry
