Default Oil pressure gauge

does anybody know how fit an oil pressure gauge to a 4x4 sapphire?
I bought a pressure gauge adapter which is like a T piece, one hole for the pressure switch and one hole for the pipe which goes to the pressure gauge problem is when its screwed into the block where the switch would be, it sticks out too far so the oil filter cant fit...

if theres a guide on here send me to it!

Thanks

you need a tee piece that is blocked off on the end and both outlets on the sides, if you can understand that. i might have a picture somwhere.
