Any car accesory shop sells them. Your car has a pre-drilled hole in the head, just below the thermostat housing. One thing is important, the size for an adapter is 5/8

Try ebay if your local motorfactors can't help you or your nearest morris minor specialist or east sussex minors http://shop.morrisminorspares.co.uk/adv ... 8e065e8891

Dont forget to take the power for the gauge from the voltage regulator at the back of the speedo.

Or buy a proper mechanical unit with the sender bulb and tube to the gauge head.
