This will help you out with the oil sensors ...

Maybe fit the water temp sensor next to the std one in the thermostat housing, just drill & tap it.
Theres usually only 3 wires on the guages, earth, switched live & a wire to go to the sensor.

Not to difficult tbh.

where have you relocated the heater controls too?

[draper]

i was looking at re-locating the heater controls, not really sure where to tho - i might try and put them in the glovebox

My 3 dials are where the heater controls were, just got the blowers on a switch just on / off on medium setting, leave the direction on the widscreen all the time & have the heater control cable going into the glovebox.

ah ha! i was going to do the above, but couldnt work out where to put stuff! Ive seen loads of Saph cossies with the 6 dial setup in the dash, and though "i could do that"
