Oil Pressure gauge...
...how long does it take to fit, and is it easy? Will I need any "extra" attachments that doesn't come with gauges? Got an A pillar pod, boost gauge and oil pressure gauge that need fitting, and Taz hasn't got time to do it (the joys of running a business!) His mate who originally looked at scooby for me said he'd do it, but how much should I expect to pay someone to do it? Is it a big job???

Nate, I wouldn't have a clue where to start? I could probably fit the A pillar pod, maybe give the boost gauge a go, but oil pressure??????????????????????
I'm afraid that is when I become a real girly girl!!!!!

Oil pressure gauge fitting will take about an hour, I make adaptors for the gauges, and on the oil pressure, I use a T-piece so the original oil pressure switch is still used.
You've got to take off the drivebelt covers, drive belts and remove the alternator to gain access to the oil p. switch

Can't you fit a sandwich plate that'll do the same job and not effect the original oil pressure pipe??
Was gonna fit mine tomorrow and got the s/w plate?!?
