Thinking about fitting the gauges mentioned in the thread title. The boost gauge is pretty well documented and is the one I really need, but I also thought maybe I could fit the oil temp and pressure just out of interest rather than any real need-but would it be easily possible? Where are the blanking plugs where the senders for oil temp and pressure and would the senders that come with the instruments be compatible, also I would need to preserve the oil pressure warning light which I guess is a switch. Anyone know anymore about this kind of thing?

I think my Xantia TD has a blank in the hole on the front middle of the sump where the temp sensor fits. I have a sensor and gauge from a Xantia but have not yet fitted it. Removing the instrument panel is a bit offputting.
I wonder if the sump plug could be replaced with a temp sensor? Not ideal but simple if posible.
Oil pressure - not sure - can a 'T' be fitted where the pressure switch is mounted?
Where is the pressure switch mounted?
What thread is the pressure switch?
