you can pop out the o.e. pressure switch and install the gauge there.

its down below the oil filter

you'll probably need to get a 1/8'' BSP pitch adapter to NSP (look up British standard pipe thread) just google that, they're like 4 bucks

if you wanna be ghetto (and what 240 owner doesnt want to) you can find an NSP fitting that closely matches the BSP pitch and teflon tape it.

is that a good idea? NOPE
did i do it temporarily with a pressure gauge after engine work? YUP
