    Just drill through either side of the housing, same as the adapter in the second pic. Buy yourself a tap with the correct thread pitch to match your sensors and bob's your uncle. It's easy as pie to drill and tap a hole, no need to pay someone to do it.

    The thread tap will often have scribed onto it what size drill bit you should use for it Or it will be documented on the card/kit when you purchase it.
