Oil sending unit/pressure switch

[DSM MAN]

Is the Oil sending unit and pressure switch hard to replace. I looked them up at autozone i believe and it said for a 1993 eagle talon tsi that it was $9 for each one. Is that the right price? It seems a little low for it. Thanks.

Well there are 2 different ones. The one for the dummy light is the "switch", yeah it's about $10. It goes in the upper-front part of the oil filter housing.

Th oil pressure sender for the gauge is about $40-$50, it is the BIGGER one of the two of them. Looks like a bell, or if you will, a medium-large mushroom. It goes in the rear of the oil filter housing, you can access it throught the drivers-side wheel well.

Thanks that helps a lot. Just curious though is it called something else, because at the autozone website when you type in oil sending unit it comes up with a 9 dollar part. Thanks.
