Help us out by telling us what brand of gauges you have, and whether they are electrical or mechanical?

Most brands of gauges include the senders with the gauge.

oil pressure - put a T piece in where the standard oil pressure sender light goes, for oil temp fit a sandwich plate between the filter and housing and tap into that for the temp.

Cheers,
Rich

I bought a sandwitch plate from JustJap and all it did was leak. It might be worth getting a quality one if you're planning on doing this...

I had the same problem, with the JustJap unit. You'll find that the provided bungs are not actually the correct size. A quick trip to Pirtek and about $5 will see it working perfectly though ;)

Also call them back and let them know, I got a $15 credit.
