Default Where to install oil pressure sender?

Ok, I searched the service manual for a freggin hour, and came up basically empty handed...

I found the oil pressure switch... but have no idea how to hook up the pressure sender, the only thing I'm coming up with, is buying an oil filter sandwich adapter, but I REALLY don't want to.

Can anyone help me? I know at least one person has added an oil pressure gauge... but blah... he hasn't checked the forum in two months...

And I'm gonna go spastic if I can't figure this out...

...I need sleep.

...from the picture in the manual, it looks as if there is a nut around the end of the pressure sensor, do I just unbolt that, and replace with the pressure sender unit?

Ya, that's what I was thinking.

My head just feels like it's gonna explode right now, though.
