Demon Tweeks sell all the stuff you need

this is a common method ... http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/Motorspor ... 74/0/19665" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

As you can see it uses a modified sump plug with a sender unit in it (M14 X 1.5)
I would be worried about the wiring being damaged with lowered suspension

Cheers kev , wiring should be fine as it's standard ride height and staying that way. :ok
