Question Lamco Sensors

Afternoon gents, I've fitted a set of the old Lamco Gauges into my RA and when we wired the sensors in we realised that both oil pressure and oil temp sensors are not the correct ones for the gauges. Now the question is where can I get replacement sensors ? The Lamco design is out of production and I do hear that the defi ones will work but I'm afraid they are not budget friendly for me as I imagine they are not cheap.

Any pointers please guys ? I'm imaging something must be available somewhere because these gauges are still selling strong and I hear of no one that is scrapping them so that tells me there must be options but I simply don't know what they are just yet.

Cheers
Simon.

What sensors have you got? The ones I have for my white lamco gauges the oil temperature sensor screws into the blank above piston number 3 and the oil pressure sensor replaces the original oil pressure switch

The oil pressure gauge is way out and shows a reading that hits the end of the scale but the temp senser was reading out when we tested it.
