3 gauge pillar senders
I just aquired a 3 gauge pilar with a fuel pressure, trans temp, and oil temp. I just wanted some insight on where the best place to mount the sender sensors would be for the three.
I am thinking the oil and trans temp will probably be drill some holes in the oil pans  as bad as that sounds. But let me know if you have any better spots.

Are you an A4 or M6 car? A4's are a piece of cake to install a trans temp sender. Under the car, on the drivers side you will see where the shifter linkage is. Directly above the shifter linkage, you will see a bolt all by itself with nothing mounted to it. This is the transmission pressure test port. If you bought autometer gauges, they give you the sender and 2 mounting nuts.. you wont need the nuts at all. Remove the bolt and replace it with your trans temp sender with some sealant on the threads. Bingo. Job is done.
Temp readings from here should be pretty close to accurate with a little fluctuation due to heat sink because you're mounting it into the shell of the tranny. About a 10* higher temp than if you were to mount it into the fluid directly. Fuel pressure easiest will be to mount off of your fuel rail. You'll have to have a tool to remove your schrader valve and an adapter for the pressure sender. NX makes one for gm cars that I plan to use on mine. Oil temp I dont have first hand experiance in, but from what I've read is that you can purchase a T fitting and attach it directly above the oil filter.
