Lightbulb does a rich & lean gauge works in a 350z

I have an autometer rich & lean gauge. Does it works in a 350z '05?
I buy an extra Oxygen Sensor (Bosch)- one cable only, to plug the gauge.
In which manifold side do I have to put the new oxygen sensor?

Thanks for any help.

Probably not. However, maybe a high/low fuel gauge could possibly be fabbed and somehow installed?

ya, it will work... but make sure to keep it between the "engine is hot gauge" and the "go fast gauge", it helps sheild the output from all the noise created from your engines oscillating polarity.

btw, the sensor goes right in the middle.

Should be fine, just remember to have it re-calibrated at every tire air change.
