I added a new hole in the firewall for my tach cable, I sent both tach and spedo out and refurbised, I never liked the big bend in the tach cable under the dash for the tach cable so I drilled a new hole added a gromet and the cable is much straighter going to the tach

Oh boy - now you've gone and become a DPO! :jester:

Good job, though!
 
maybe so but I have fixed more DPO problems than I have created :smile:
fixed PDWA light
fixed hazards lights
fixed oil pressure lamp
fixed tunnel lamp
fixed glove box lamp
fixed door light switches
fixed horns
fixed washers
fixed reverse lamps
(well a new harness fixed all that)

well you get the Idea

It looks like a steelbraid oil pressure guage hose, TSI is where mine came from.
 
I was told size does matter, and yes its the Braided SS oil pressure line to gauge, and that was another reason I added the extra hole, it is larger but that original plastic line I dont trust and dont want a breakage and oil spraying everywhere or damaging the new engine thats going in at the end of april
