Oil Pressure Sender Thread MX5

Hi All

I'm trying to fit a VDO oil pressure sender / warning switch but not sure about the thread. The VDO sensor, I believe is 1/8" NPT but the original Mazda one looks similar but isn't the same! Any ideas? Metric?

Ta in advance

I was amazed to find it is 1/8"BSPT.

I got an adaptor from ETB fror mine. £4.20 inc VAT.

I was tempted to retap it to 1/8NPT but bottled out

Thanks rdodger

Adaptor ordered! Tapping was not an option for me either, especially as the car is up for sale!

Regards
