Should I use an adapter for my water temperature gauge or tap into the thermostat?

[First Pooy]

What's people's opinion on putting a water temperature adapter in or taping into the thermostat housing

I put an adapter in my top hose and it works fine.

Use an adaptor. I have one in mine

Zackery what I did. Works perfectly. My reasoning is that it is easier to put in if you replace your hose, just need a knife, than to drill and tap anew thermostst housing.
