850 A-Pillar pods & Oil pressure sender

[ken10]

Hi!
I have 2 queries. Hope someone can help.

1) I'm planning to install additional gauges on my car. Anyone know where I can obtain A-pillar gauge pods that will fit my 1996 Volvo 850 T-5?

2) Anyone know the thread diameter / pitch size required for the oil pressure sender for my 850 T-5?

Thank you.

i made my own up using 1 a RGM moulding's 1 intended for a Saxo, all you have to do was remove the lower lip on the pod then it fits (was a slight gap by the dash where it had creased because of the differenece in anngle between a Saxo & 850 A pillar)

You shouldn't have to look too hard..I picked up a KROOZING catalogue up today and they have about 7 different types..three of these were pillar mounts ones like the ones shown by the others.....

Thanks for all the information given on the A-pillar pods.

All of you have really been helpful.

Does anyone know whether the A-pillar pods from Volvopartsonline fit my 1996 850 T-5?
Do I need to carry out any modifications to the pods to fit my car?

Thanks again
