SANDWICH PLATE GAUGE ADAPTOR<--help

hi guys
i just ordered the whole Defi BF gauge line up
is there or shall i say do you know a place that sells SANDWICH PLATE`s so i can install the oil temp and the oil pressure gauges,, i know i know i have these readings in the DIC the thing is i would like to record my cars actions via Defi link
so anyhow is there a shop or maybe is there an easy way to do it without the oil filter sandwich plate ? i didn't peak under the car yet i have to lift it since i have no jack and we have a huge sandstorm right now and i don't want to take it out of the garage at this time
thanks in advance

Doesn't seem anyone else has your setup and no ideas seem to be forthcoming.

...and I don't know what you mean by a "sandwich plate"; perhaps if you explain someone will have some ideas. Good luck.

Re: SANDWICH PLATE GAUGE ADAPTOR<--help

Is this what you're talking about?
I googled sandwich plate gauge and came up with a source ... However, I'd suggest Randy Rippie, Doug Rippie Motorsports ... or other performance vendor that deals in aftermarket coolers and accessory items.

Sandwich plate with gauge sensor attachment ... "sandwich plates" fit in between your oil filter and the engine block and provide an oil source for sensors ... for fitting Oil Temperature and Oil Pressure gauges.
Note: This sandwich plate does not have takeoffs for an oil cooler, it is purely for fitting gauges.

Note: I know that the C5Z06 has an oil pressure sensor that plugs in to a bolt-on housing on the inbound side of the oil filter. In my case, I replaced it with an oil cooler adaptor housing that has two -AN 10 outlets and a sensor boss to retain the OEM oil pressure sensor functionality ....
