Looks a lot like my Satoh and Mitsubishi tractors.

I have a 1100D and I added a temp gauge just above the light switch.( left side of dash) I kept the lights in the dash and still use the oil pressure light. I think gauges are the way to go. At least you can see the status of your tractor at any time. It is a tight fit, but not too bad. And....I could not remove my steering wheel so I did it with the dash in place.

Add the guage.....you may be glad you did....

You probably have a smaller dash in the 1300, but here is what I did with my 1500D. I had both the oil sender and temp go bad on me this past year so I went to gauges. I must say I am a gauge fan, if for no other reason than they will give you a heads up before you get into idiot light trouble. I did tilt the oil gauge so I would get a better view in the operational range from where my eyes sit.

Keep the "Idiot Lights" and just add gauges. If something happens you'll notice the "Idiot light first"

And if really serious add an audible alarm to the "Idiot Gauge"
