Water Temp Gauge Install

Hey guys im trying to install a temp gauge but im having trouble finding a spot to put the new sensor. I looked thru the L61 forums and there is a thread about it there but the problem is this picture:

the bottom two plugs ( the bottom right one is for coolant) dont exist on LAP engines so im not sure where else i can put the new sensor.

any advice is greatly appreciated.

Buy the adapter and cut the upper rad hose and install the adapter onto the hose then screw in the sensor.
