Received the Oil Pressure Gauge and Sender

Because of my oil leaking issues, I ordered an oil pressure gauge and the double pole sending unit.

I ordered from BusDepot.com so I had little faith in it showing up :). I got it, but it didn't have a packing receipt and was from reused boxes and newspaper. I don't mind this that much. In larger orders I find they screw up. Small ones like this seem to go pretty smooth.

Here's a picture of the dual sender unit, the gauge and a gauge panel.

Also, I had to order a replacement antenna due to a car-wash incident.

Casey: Let us know how it went installing the VDO gauges? Is there another one to install, besides the oil pressure gauge? It's real important knowing about your oil, since you don't have anything else to cool your engine, besides air flow. From another VW bus owner, who likes the slow lane in Tucson.

I have the Oil Pressure Gauge and a Cylinder Head Temperature gauge. I bought the later a while back and have only installed the sender.
