    do you mean in the rubber hose or the alloy top hose?

    If it is the alloy part you can replace the the one that send the signal to the dash gauge which is the smaller of the 2. Not sure how big this is but it can be unscrewed easily. The other option is the weld a boss into this pipe and drill and tap a hole for your sender. DTA is your man for this.

    If you mean in the rubber part you can get adaptors from demon tweeks, etc and drill and tap to size.

    Just drill and tap an extra hole for the extra sender - the ally pipe is thick enough :)

    cheers duffer i might give that another go. Is there a sweet spot that is thicker than the rest or the best location to put a 3rd party sensor?

     

    Have you or anyone else extended the sensor wire that goes from the dash gauge sensor in that top hose so stretch to halfway down the rubber bottom hose? The wire seems to just be a single female blade connector so can a simialr gauge extension wire just be soldered on?
