What kind of gauges are you using? VDO?

The oil temp sender replaces the oil drain plug. It's kind of a kluge, but it works. The oil pressure sender relaces the stock warning light sender. You can get a "T" shaped adapter that allows you to connect both the new sender and the stock sender to the same location, so you can keep the stock warning light.

I just bought this whole setup for my car with white face gauges so if you need the right VDO part #'s I have them. DON'T get the stuff from BMP or BAS...there are many cheaper places. I used Egauges.com, but Summit Racing has great prices too.

Email me if you need the part numbers


any one know where i put the sender units? do i have to make a special fitting up to be able to use both senders thanks
