Haven't we ALL heard this
Yeah, I have done the water and oil temp. ones. For the water temp I drilled a hole before the thermostat and tapped it. Works great.
For the oil temp I got the adapter plate from racing beat. www.mazdatrix.com
I believe you may need to keep the factor sensor. Not sure though.

I did the same thing, I put the oil pressure/temp adapter plate on (goes under the oil filter), and drilled/tapped a hole in the waterpump housing for the water temp sensor.

well, i thought about drilling and tapping the water pump hole but i was really looking to get the temperature at the block because i am sure that the temp between the block and the water pump is different. thanks though.
