Default Gauges-Sandwich Plate good or bad?

Fancy some gauges, but know there are 2 different ways of fitting the oil temp & pressure gauges i.e. using a sandwich plate:-
Oil Sandwich Plate Subaru, Honda, Ford, Mazda & Mitsubi on eBay (end time 12-Nov-09 09:08:17 GMT)
or this:-
Scoobyparts Ltd OIL PRESSURE & OIL TEMPERATURE GAUGE FITTING KIT

What is most commonly used with you guys?

Gauges are the ProSport 60mm the usual 3, but this deal comes with the sandwich plate and all sensors, this has to be ok doesn't it?

Thanks for only help

I had a sandwich plate on my autogauges and it worked a treat, but some people say it does not give a true reading

Sandwich plate worked ok for a while but the temp and pressure senders kept failing,will try a different setup next time.
