I'm wanting to install a VDO oil pressure guage into my newly ordered appearance group centre console from 914rubber, but I need to pick the brains out there. Looking at the VDO cockpit range they offer guages from 0 - 80 or 100 or 150 psi. Plus a variety of thread adapted options I'm assuming I will need metric not US, & I'm guessing these are 52mm diameter guages while the original console guages were 60 mm. I would be happy to not install a clock but instead have an oil pressure guage - the clock will only indicate what little time I have left when the oil pressure "too low" light comes on! Haha.
I thus also need to fabricate an adapter to the smaller diameter guage...hmmmm
Also I'm guessing it's a good time to replace oil pressure sender and rep,ace with stock new one ?
So guys anyone experienced at this able to save me some time? And hassle?
