depends on what fitment your gauge sensors are, you need to match the threads in the sensor holes on the sandwich plate to the threads on the sensors themselves. So if you have 1/8 BSP threads on your sensors then you need a sandwich plate with 1/8 BSP holes.

Its weird as ive seen ones that just sit between the oil filter and block (i.e. you dont screw them onto the oil filter fixing attached to the block) but ive seen ones that you do screw on and then screw the oil filter on, on top of that.
