Dont know where the thread is but I can tell you how I have done in the past.

Start off by locating the fuel pressure regulator.The hose that goes to this is a boost hose/engine vacuum.This should be cut and a suitable t-piece fitted.Secure the t-pipe with cable ties or the like.The middle connector is where you should put the hose that you need to route through to the cabin.The hose simply goes on to the boost controller and secured.The lighting to the controller should be simple enough to sort if you have a multimeter.Set one end on the body(earth and then find a connector that gives you 12volts once the ignition is turned.This will give you lights when the car is running and not when off.

This link will help you find the pressure regulator.

You can get it from either the same place you buy/bought the boost gauge from.They usually come with a t-piece.Or you can get them from a hardware store or a pipe/hose suppliers.
