The only place i found one available is here:

Oil Pressure Sensor Adapter, 1/8" BSPT - Engine - Autotech Motoring

Don't forget it has 2 x 1/8 npt holes, so you'll have to plug one of them.

I have a spare AutoTech adapter (complete with plug) if you're still looking for one. $25 (including shipping) and it's your. Post me if interested.

Just about to install an AEM oil pressure gauge. According to the install instructions, it appears the wiring from the gauge to the power supply is similar to the Defi gauge set-up. Based on a quick look, I've located circuits in the interior fuse box located on the driver's side wheel well for the switched and unswitched power that's needed (which I can link into using add-a-circuits). What I need to know is what wire can I tap into so that the gauge dims with the gauge cluster as yours does. Appreciate any help you can provide. Thanks!

I was only able to find a dimmer wire as part of the radio harness wiring. Luckily, one of the radio wires was tagged with "ILLUM" and i spliced into that one.

Well, that was convenient. I'll check the wiring diagrams in the full service manual and find one to tap into. Thanks for the reply!
