    I don't remember if I was able to just screw the other end into the oil pressure gauge, or if I spliced it into a chunk of copper tubing.

    It is such a mess under my dash that I cannot see where it hooks up.

    Hey, Thanks for the pic! I think I like the braided stuff. I would think it would hold up better being its not as stiff as the rigid copper tubing.
