1969 Z28 temp. sensor
 
I'm looking for some info on temperature sensors. What would be the correct temperature sensor switch and correct connector for a 1969 302 engine. The car has no center console, just idiot lights.

I thought it had the threaded end - especially for the console with gauges??

The pictured sender is correct for idiot lights.

Here are pics of the correct connector:

Okay that's what I have on my car , sensor and connector. The plastic on my connector is broken on the top, do you guys know where I could find one ?

Pretty sure they are not reproduced.
It is a tough find.
The replacement senders had a spade and most of the original terminal ends were cut off and thrown away in favor of a female spade terminal.

There is a repair kit that is made by American Autowire, and just about all the vendors carry it. Problem is the plastic plug is black. The crimp terminal is good.
American Auto wire does have the white plug on the restoration harness, maybe you could check with them ?
