I got a VDO gague and a VDO oil pressure sender. You need a 10BAR gague and sender.

You want to get a twin pole sender so you can keep the factory low pressure light.

The lowest warning you can get is 0.5BAR but thats fine as hot idle is more than twice that and i think the factory low warning of 0.25 is too low for comfort anyway.

Its far simpler and tidier to get an electric gague, you only need 3 wires to run them, +, - and sender feed.

there are millions of pods etc out there, I customised the centre console to hold mine.

Have you got a link to the kit you got?

thats the one i got too, with the matching VDO sender.

Thats quite important, to get a matched sender to your gauge. Im not sure if it goes as far as getting the same make as your gauge but it needs to be the same range

The guages that fit into the air vents are pretty cool. Mr Seabrook has got one which looks trick. Not sure what the gauge is for though.

So i need a 1/8npt sender with 3 spades and 0.5bar warning. and 10 bar gauge to match?
