Default Are you sure you want to use the one on the filter for a gauge?

On my Corrado, which was an 8v I4, I used the oil presure switch up on the head..

Default so does that piece (#2 in the pic) meassure both temp and pressure? and

does anyone know if a vdo duel sending unit will fit on a 1.8 without adding an extention to clear the other oil lines? the fit looks a little tight!
