How many gauges do you want to mount?

I dont think there is an analogue signal from oil pressure. I know there is a switch but havent seen a pressure transmitter, and havent seen an oil pressure reading using the GAP IID tool.

Gauges? 2 maybe three. It depends if I see a means of mounting them and how many holes it has.
I reckon one of those multi gauge pods mounted just to the left of the instrument binnacle. I dunno, thats why I'm fishing.

See a post that I submitted in February on my attempt at something usefull

Ryall,

The text is included below

D3 extra gauges on the dash
My dash setup on an 05 D3 TDV6
TPMS on the left of the steering wheel showing under inflated front drivers tyre at 32PSI and 31 degrees temp while ambient is only 26 degrees I put 4 PSI in and it now reads around 36PSI just above ambient temp.
The other gauges are Engine Watchdog (coolant temp being returned from radiator (showing 68 degrees) and auto transmission fluid temperature (showing 68 degrees normally 76 on highway 86 when towing) and a Scanguage showing what the CPU thinks the temp is it's normally around 80-85, the voltage between 13.2 to 14.6 volts, RPM and Manifold Air Pressure (MAP) 14.9 at idle 22 at cruise 30 fast at acceleration.
MAP is the modern version of a vacuum gauge for a measure of fuel economy.
