Oil Pressure guage installation questions?

I have the guage hooked up and routed, but am having difficulty reaching the spot on the engine where you tape into the engine. I can't reach it from above, and that metal plate around the oil filter hinders access from below. I will have to look, but I am not sure if removing the oil filter will allow me enough access. Any ideas guys.

Best bet, IMHO, is to remove the three long bolts holding the accessory bracket to the driver's side of the engine. The accessories will lay over to side and make access very clean and simple.

Well, I figured it out. For future reference, a 1 inch deep well socket, with extensions, push aside tubing and go at it straight on, and remove. Installation required me to remove the oil filter, which gave me hand access to the block and a swevel addition finished the job. Buy the way, what kind of oil pressure are you guys seeing in your lightings?
