Default Oil pressure gauge question

I want to put an electric oil pressure gauge in my 2011 JK. Does the 3.8 have an existing port I can use for the sending unit, or do I need a sandwich plate adapter for this engine? If I need an adapter, who makes a good one and where can I get it? Where I'm located it's pretty much 100% mail order, nothing local or even close to local.

The sandwich adapter is the easiest way to do it.

You could also install a "T" under the existing oil pressure switch.

Here is how to locate it:
