OAT sensor- removable connectors?

I'm using molex microfit connectors (like on the backup battery connectors) in my system, but even a 2 wire connector is too big to fit through the 3/8" hole for the OAT sensor. I know I can use some d-sub connectors and then seal them with heat shrink, but them I have to cut the heat shrink off if I need to remove the sensor. Is anyone using something different, or just not worrying about it?


TIA

You didn't mention if it was Skyview or not.
With the OAT probe supplied for the ADAHRS unit, it has the connector not installed, just loose wires with the pins on the end.
Connector goes on after the wires are fed through.
If you are using microfit connectors, can you do the same thing?

What Glenn said. Install using the Dynon provided connector and don't look back. Highly unlikely it will ever need to come out again.
