I read somewhere that you could hook it in where the oil pressure switch is, but not sure where that is.
Alternatively you could use a oil filter sandwich plate?

Agreed, this is the easist approach, check out ebay. The FTO didn't come with an oil pressure gauge / sender as standard.

For future reference the oil pressure sender is at the rear of the engine, on the timing belt side just above sump

Mick,
HAve you got a link to the plate you ordered, one might save me the hassle of having to get my sump temp sensor machined.
