a lot of cars had a vdo sender which has a variable output to operate a gauge (o - 4 bar) and a pressure switch for the light, both built into one unit.

I know opel mantas used these, as i have loads of them, but have seen them on other cars too, just can't remember which ones!

Have a look at this

No connection, but I have one of the 10 bar oil pressure senders.

Cheers

Not having a switch is a really bad idea all you need to fit both is a "T" connector.

Electrical oil presure gauges (particularly in kit cars) tend to be unreliable mechanical bourdon gauges are a lot less trouble.
