Default Advice on oil sandwich plate

Getting ready to install a oil pressure gauge and I'm not sure what sandwich plate to go with.
What is everyone running? This seems to be the easiest way to hook it up and I can add oil temp down the road.

Any advice would help.

Thanks

I have a Prosport sandwich plate and it's junk but it does work. I'm pretty sure that once you put in the bolts to block off any ports you aren't using they will never come out. Honestly I'd stay away from it and any gauges they produce. Seriously.

Im running a Defi boost Gage but went with a Depo oil pressure gauge. Read that it's a cheaper version of my Defi gauges but still good quality. Now I just need to find the safe easiest way to hook it up!

Use sandwich port as oil feed and block for oil pressure gauge

It depends on what your gauge came with

How big is the sender? If it's overly large/heavy, I would remotely mount it.
