adding oil pressure gauge to 4kq?



Has anyone ever added a gauge to a 4kq?
I have one that I used on my GLI, but the sender look different.
The sender on the GLI uses a single wire to send back the signal, 
while the stock sender on the 4kq uses a dual wire connector.
Anyone have a cheap set of gauges out of a coupe that you
want to part with, perhaps with the oil pressure sender
as well?  Or at least the oil pressure gauge and sender.

Yes, the 4kq is running well enough that I'm now starting to
tinker with non-essential things.  Only weird thing was that the
other night when I picked it up, I suddenly lost my headlights
and radiator fan, but dash lights still worked.  If I did a "flash
to pass" the headlights and fan came back on.  Sounds like a bad
ground but it hasn't done it again and all the fuses check out...

Still to do:

- no vacuum to diff lock lever, and it appears that the v.lines
  are hooked up wrong (still runs OK though)
- light for rear diff lights up when I engage 5th gear.  Obviously
  I hooked up the tranny harness wrong and that light is tied to
  the doodad that tells the upshift light the tranny is in 5th.
- shift lever needs adjusting, 5th and reverse are tough to find
  (more play center-to-left than center-to-right)

Opinions/advice are welcome :)
