You won't be able to use the existing senders as the signals are different. You will need the right ones for the guages.

Oil ones as per Oddballs post above on Migweb.

For the water temp guage I tapped a hole in the thermostat housing. Hang on I'll get a pic!

I got mine done at the local machine shop. Only cost a few quid. Also, because its after the thermostat and very close to the factory one it should give a similar reading to the one on your dash.
