I don't see how it could make a difference, but they specifically call that out in the instructions for the gauges if I recall. Might be worth a try...

That would be very cool!

He's got the VDO sender that is the non-porsche branded version of the (presumably) same part. If the leads were swapped (and I think the blades might even be two different sizes) it would not work at all, the one is simply a low pressure switch that (presumably) completes a circuit to ground when the pressure drops below a certain level.
