Maybe panicking is a bit strong. Apprehensive at being responsible for a life other than my own is probably a better synopsis. Good job I've got an amazing wife to share the task with.
Hmm, I would have put heat shrink over the joints. Water get's into everything under a car, and a bit of corrosion over time could throw the measurements out...
Maybe ask about extending the wires yourself and what wire is appropriate for the job. Just double check that it won't have any consequences for the operation and accuracy of the sensor...
It would be good if we could somehow save the history of the forum. I do look back on stuff and wish I was as good at documenting projects as Dean is, but alas If I get into a job I get to involved in what i'm doing and totally forget... I check the forum regularly but I to fail to contribute for the aforementioned reason. There is however something a little special about the forum compared to Facebook, mainly because Facebook is filled with tat and sharing bollocks where as there is some real content in the forum and new posts are always worth reading. Quality over quantity.... Would be sad to see it go, but it is fading away and I guess it is an inevitable result.

Try them and tell them what your after and what you have currently.
I'ts an Innovate system right? so does it not have a cable from the sensor to the unit as follows, and can you not feed the cable to the logger through the panel the other way and have the connector outside the car? these connectors are meant to survive that type for environment and are fully sealed.
one: n. A poking. The SI unit of sex, given to a woman by a man and measured from the moment it goes in to to moment it goes off. Equivalent to six tenths of a portion, 180% of some, and 2.36 bits of the other.
abra-kebabra: n. A magical illusion performed after a night on the piss, whereby a traditional Turkish delicacy is made to disappear down the performer's throat, only to reappear a short time later on the back of a taxi driver's head.
I see you've got some nice big bosses on the intake runners for some direct port nitrous injection. Best get those drilled and tapped for nozzles while it's on the machine...
An old favourite poped up on my phone as the daily entry this morning...
jizzaster: n. The leaving of incriminating masturbatory evidence behind. ‘That wad of spunk on the carpet was a fucking jizzaster. Not to mention the Fuck Truck tape in the video, or the circle of open wank mags on the living room floor. Or me lying unconscious in the middle of it all with my trousers round my ankles and my red-raw cock in my hand.'
M & S turd:euph. A shite which is worthy of special attention due to its exceptional quality. “This is not just a turd, this is a five-day matured, chicken vindaloo with garlic naan and eight bottles of Cobra turd.”
