Hello bolters, I am getting ready to re install the stock gauges. I have the Grommet set. The question is on the throttle/Choke/Oil pressure/Temperature. How is/was the Temperature gauge run through the grommet? My old one was rotten and gone. Do I cut a "Slit" on it to put the line through? I tried looking in my FAM but the pictures are not good. Thank you in Advance.
Not sure how it was done originally, but I did what you said. The end on the temp sender tube ain't going through the grommet. So I slit it and the put a little black weatherstrip adhesive on the slit. You can't tell it and it helps keep the grommet in the hole.
I 've got my 54' under plastic masking, but here is a photo of another person's truck and you can see that the originals were "slit" . That what I did when I replaced the grommets on my firewall.
