Default Where to hookup Sensor for aftermarket WATER Temp gauge

Hi, I have this splitfire water temperature gauge with probe but can't find where to hook it up. I know they recommend to take off the oem sender but I don't want to, and even if I do want it, it wont fit caus my splitifre probe is too big to fit that little hole. Engine is a 1999 b18b

Neone can help?

i think I saw an ad for AC Autotechnic where they made some type of adapter for it to fit in, but the cheaper way would be SgT's way. Nothing wrong with that.

And how would you mount that into the radiator upper neck in the cylinder head ? Is there a screw up there or I just drill a whole in the rubber hose and tape to probe in ?

Thanks

not in the rubber. in the aluminum neck that sticks out of the head.
you have to drill and tap it for the fitting you will use
