Hi bought some speedo clocks out of a 206 quicksilver today for my lx and might sound like a stupid question but the temp gauge is under the rev counter i understand that but whats the other gauge in the right corner where the temp gauge is on most clocks is it oil pressure gauge or somthing like that lol thanks

Most (all?) 1.4 8V LX left the factory without oild temp/level gauge. The sensor, if fitted, is on the front of the block to the right of the oil filter. I doubt that the wiring is already in place for this model.
However, you may be lucky. See if there is a blanking plug (bolt) and some spare connectors in the area. If there is then you can try fitting a sensor and connecting the wires but I think you are about to be disappointed.
