Help Hooking Up A Fuel Gauge

I got a rediclous deal on a electric auto meter cobalt 30psi fuel gauge and couldnt pass it up.

My question is...where do I hook it up at? and what fittings do I need. it comes with a 1/8" NPT Sender.

does anyone have any pics on where the hooked their line up?

no, you only need 1. your choice. the banjo is cheap, the cap looks cool.

you can put it on the filter outlet, or the vp44 inlet.
a banjo fitting is a connection the takes the pipe 90* to the component you are plumbing. does that make sense?
