Default Oil pressure guage.

Looking at getting some new gauges for the escort.

Found some nice ones but they come as just the gauges, so what would I need to get the oil pressure gauge to work?

Cheers.

What type of gauge is it? As you'll need more than 'just a sender' or even still you wont need 'just a sender' find out how the gauge runs( Mechanical/Electrical).

Ok... A sender and small amount of wire to wire it in.... Usually fit the sender on a t-piece at the oil sender/feed at the back of the block or swap the current oil light sender for the new sender (if your not bothered about retaining the light)
