help with aftermarket gauge sensor locations 900 1995

I have installed aftermarket gauges in my daughters 1995 960. I am now ready to install the senders for the gauges and have some questions as to the easiest place to insert the senders. The three gauges I installed are: water temperature, oil pressure, and transmission fluid temperature. I should add that I would like to keep the stock gauges functional.

Has anyone installed aftermarket gauges? Can anyone, please, tell me the easiest place to tie the senders in?

I know the stock coolant sensor is in the back of the block, but I don't think I would ever be able to mount a t-fitting in the space to keep the stock gauge working. Also, I've looked at the tranny cooler lines and thought that I might T into the line which brings transmission fluid to the cooler on the passenger side of the engine compartment. Any thoughts on this approach? Is there a plug on the block that is direct to an oil passage where I could install the sender with a thread adapter?

As always, I appreciate any help/advice you can give me on this project!
