If you don't wish to buy extra parts, you can cut the mushroom head off the stock op sending unit and tap it. Temp can be tapped on the back side of the waterpump housing.

You can easily drill and tap the banjo bolt holding the rear oil cooler line to the motor. All this costs, is the cost of 2 sealing washers, and a bit of time.
