Has anyone installed oil pressure gauge on their m3?

Hello, has anyone installed just oil pressure gauge on their m3? If so could you please include links to parts or possibly explain on how it can get done. Thank you!

I installed a full set of Stack st3500 pro series gauges on my Z4MC.
I would love to do the same on the M3 but don't see any reasonable way to do it and have it look decent.

It would have been so nice to have a gauges screen on iDrive

The reason so is to monitor oil flow due to bearings. It’s ridiculous how performance cars don’t have such a tool

What I'm planning to do until I can think of something different is just use a Solo2 DL to monitor.
I'll set up a screen to monitor critical data points. (I dont care about seeing my ET or sector splits etc)
The DL will also let me log all this data to spreadsheets for trending over time.

p3 with a temp sensor is probably the cheapest option.
