Here's a good link from Danny on this forum - installing an oil gauge in the dash in place of the clock - very neat!

Jclay's picture looks as if the branch of the 'T' is shorter than mine was. I had to remove the cover (centre bolt) to be able to turn it in so had a new 'O' ring ready to refit it (may have been 2, large and small IIRC). Obviously, instead of the capillary connector you will need to screw in the pressure sensor.
