I would think so. Do you have the FSM for the car? I'll sort my FSM for the various connector ID's and wire pinning and post back.

Use the link from my "USER ID" and drop me an email so I can send them directly to you. Just click on WVZR-1 and the email link should be available. You can have it this AM - likely in 60 minutes!

Yes it shouldn't be a problem. There's a 15 pin connector (C209) near the fuse block. There should be a PINK wire at pin E I believe. That would be I'd think the least non-destructive point to gain access.

If your gauge will work with a 0Ω = EMPTY and 90Ω = FULL you could be all set. Do you use the original fuel tree for pump(s)?

Yes the gauge is a 0-90ohm one. I have no pump in the tank, it´s an external mounted Weldon 2345A.

Passenger side near the fuse box. Pink wire!

Great info, thanks again!
