moving fan switch

well, i just had my first shot at the dreaded cyl. head plug on the 3.4, I filed down a 3/8" 1 inch long extension to fit by hammering it in, it was perfect, until the extention snapped! Now i have tempered steel filling the hole. I'm thinking of-
*replacing the temp sensor for the gauge with the fan switch and using another means of reading the temp. OR * drilling and tapping a hole in the thermostat housing. any suggestions on another way of reading temp. if i go with the first choice. I have a spare housing, so I'm gonna try that at work. Oh, an im working outside freezing my a** off, it snowed yesterday, had to tarp the motor
