    i bought an oil pressure gauge to monitor my oil pressure since i dont have the sr5 cluster. i wanted to know where the sender for the dummy light is? and if anyone ahs installed one before? and where should my oil pressure be at at idle?crusing down the freeway? i want to get this done in one day most likely next week or when i change my oil again. i got one with an electric sender so it isnt mecahnical. thanks for any help.

    The sender should be right below the oil filter. I don't know what the pressure should be but it may be in a manual. The VDO gauge/sender that I used on my Corolla has two plugs- one for the light and one for the gauge.
