Wire

by Robs-se » Tue Jan 31, 2012 10:13 am

When i changed the sump gasket i also replaced the oil sender with the dual sender and connected a wire to it ready to go through the bulk head to the oil pressure guage.
Question is, where is the best place to run the wire through the bulk head and what is the best method to do it.

I feel a knitting needle and sticky tape coming into play here :think:

I went in though behind the glove box.
Drilled and a rubber grommet.

Thats an idea, i was thinking about existing routes on the drivers side behind the header tank or the one towards the centre, suppose drilling behind the glove box theres less important wires to damage there and less of them as well.

Thats why I did it that way, also easier to find the wire inside the car

Another good point, what size drill bit did you use?
