dash gauges 3 door
 
Hi all iam thinking of putting some gauges in the 3 door (oil pres, water temp and boost gauge) in the centre vent,i allready have a boost gauge on the pillar but will move this to the centre.what i would like to know is what is the best route to get the water and oil senders through the bulk head,and what is the best way to fit the water temp sender, ie weld a boss or into a hose many thanks paul ;)

There is a rubber gromet directly behind the instrument binacle covering a hole where the speedo cable goes through if I recal correctly. I fed my wires through there. Its easy to find from the engine bay.

Re the water temp sender I had an after market one on my old 24v. I cut the top radiator hose and used an adapter piece with sender housing (about £20 from Demon Tweaks) to join the two pieces back together.
