What to i hook up to my fuel sensor on my dash?

hey all. looks to me like there are a few things i need to connect to my fuel gauge for it to read correctly? would i be correct to assume one is a 12v+ and the other is a ground, along with the brown fuel sender wire? if so where do i tap for 12v power?

The gauge gets it's power through the cluster feed and printed circuit board. The brown wire provides the ground and that is all you need. The sending unit provides the resistance to make the gauge read correctly. If I am not 100% correct on that someone will chime in and help me out.
