Low pres/high temp alarm, Perkins:6.354 HOW?

I want to install a LP/HT alarm (sound) on my engine but found that both the sensors only have one connection, that is for the gauge.
Can anyone tell me if you connect it anotther way or... can I buy and get maybe sensors WITH the double outlet for bott gauge and switch for alarm?

One way to do it is to get a "Tee" fitting and plumb both senders/switches into the same orifice oil or water. It is almost impossible to tell you exactly how to do it as I don't know what kind of space you have to work in. Cole Hersee makes an alarm package for oil and water that is complete with senders and alarm

Thanks a lot, have plenty of space to work in so, getting new sensors and plug them in is basicly what it needs...?
