Bingo. The stock 16v sensor is your idiot light..you'll need to 
install a T connector if you want to install the oil pressure and 
retain the stock idiot warning that sits on top of the oil filter 
housing.

My loving wife took the inishitive(sp?) and bought me an oil pressure 
sender one year for a holiday..but it was only a 5 bar..cant use it..if 
anyone needs it, i'll try to dig it up...I also have the 5-bar VDO 
oil pressure gauge with it from an Audi GT.
