Oil & Fuel John Deere 650 gauges

[JohnDeereHere]

Hello All.I am interested in a manual oil pressure and temp gauge for my 650 CUT.Liquid filled direct engine mount gauges are of peculiar interest to me.Is a t-fitting on the oil pressure switch the best way to go?The tech manual indicates that any of the allen plugs on the left side of the engine could be used.However,they have been in there for 28 years so i can only imagine the horror of trying to remove one of them.The temp sensor location seems to be the only place to locate a gauge sensor.Is there a t-fitting for that?Perhaps someone with a 650 or 750 has tackled this before.Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.Thanks again!

I realize this is old post but here goes. I plan to do same install but gonna remove old temp sender and put my new Stewart Warner sender there. But I can’t find a metric to 1/8 npt adapter . I don’t know the thread size in the thermostat housing. Any help from anyone.
