oil pressure gauge adapters for FD

Quick ?

How to put an oil pressure gauge in the FD, meaning where to put the sensor?

I would like to retain the stock sensor in place so that the gauge moves

I looked up mazdatrix and there is no sensor adapter listed for the FD

Is there a off the shelf solution to this without going to a remote mount oil filter?

thanks

+1 for the respeed pedistal. High quality product just a pain to install (Mazda's fault). Do you already have boost, water temp gauges? if not those should be your first ones.

I put in a respeed pedistal and added a oil temp gauge and it works great.

check the location of your oil filter. The pedistal base is what needs to be changed out. Reach under the base and feel the two nuts on either side. They have to come out to remove the stock pedistal. The new one is then installed with new o-rings. Getting a wrench down there is the pain.
