Prosport gauges

So I have the prosport oil temp, oil pressure, and boost gauge. I love these gauges, however, does anyone know a way I can connect these gauges without using the sandwich plate?? Ive heard these sandwich plates like to leak oil. I always seem to have oil spots in my garage and I know this is where I'm leaking from previous oil changes. Any help??

PM me and I'll walk you through it. Don't use the sandwich plate; it's known to leak oil.

It's a little confusing at first but with a little help you can do it right

Thanks everyone for the replies. I'm going to give the housing ports a shot when I do my next oil change and hopefully get rid of the plate and the leaky oil issue.
