Default Installing an oil pressure gauge.

I tried the search option, but no luck. Has any member installed one in there Accord? I need to find the hole in the block for the sender. Thanks for any replies.

its right above the oil filter.
remove the stock sender completely, and use a zip tie to hold the stock oil pressur light out of the way. screw the new sending unit into the hole and attach the new wire and you are good to go.

Thank you very much man. Do I have to remove the oil, or no?

oil WILL slowly leak out but i never worried as it was a very small trickle....it may be easier to do it while changing the oil though, that way you will ahve teh filter out of the way...
