Call me anal but if it has an engine I like to know what it's oil pressure is. Other than having to order extra line due to the included supply line being too short, this little job could not have been easier.

Low dollars and a small amount of time for a little peace of mind
If you ever have a problem with the line, I've been running electric oil pressure gauges in my old cars for a few years and find them perfectly reliable. It hopefully isn't ever an issue with how you routed the line but it's nice to not have to worry about it cracking.
I'm with you on the gauges. I installed an electric oil pressure gauge and an electric water temp gauge on my Max IV with a Kawasaki water cooled engine. It runs 50 psi oil pressure with Rotella T-6 5-40 synthetic oil and 200 degrees F. on water temp. Electric gauges are pretty accurate now days.
