Oil pressure switches?

Post by jacko4 »

Which oil pressure switch do I need?
I'm currently doing an 1.6 TD to AAZ conversion and I want to replace the oil pressure switches while I'm about it.
I had a black one on the head and a black one on the filter housing on the 1.6.
But a blue one on the head and a grey one on the filter housing on the AAZ!
Should I go with the AAZ colours or do I get black ones!
Are the black ones because the engine is canted over more in the back of a T25?
KEEP LAUGHING!
