Plug into what?

There are gauges that are close to the size of the center console gauge, but not quite. You'll need an adaptor ring or need to make one from a roll of electrical tape or some such.

There are senders that fit the stock "taco plate" that had a sender originally.

Some have been creative about mounting senders in cars that didn't originally have them.

In pre-73 cars, you will have to add a wire to carry the signal from the sender to the gauge.
