oil pressure gauge hook up

i have a manual (as in not electrical) oil pressure gauge and i was wondering where all of you hooked the other end of the hose to on the 1.8 engines. one of my friend is saying between the starter and oil filter?

there's another place where you could hook it up to on the side of the head there's a little allen key bolt it's there to block the oil that's where i feed mine but it's electronic so it's easyer to plug

Are you saying you use an electronic oil pressure guage?

If so what kind/make and where did you get it?

Thanks

It's an autometer the gages comes with the sensor that you plug anywhere you want on the oil system and you pass a wire from the sensor to the gages. I didn't like the idea of bringing oil in the passenger compartiment if ever the hose brake imagine the mess
