Simple answer is to tap the wire in the instrument panel multi-connector and run it to the gauge.
However, it is rarely that easy. The sender and the gauge are usually matched to each other and need to both be changed. In that case, just run a wire back to your new gauge from a new sender.

Re: '70 f100 - oil pressure gauge
do the warning light and gauge use different senders?
