I mounted my float gauge just to the right of the headrest. There was room for
it to reach the bottom of the tank straight down. No regrets on this. Has worked
fine for 11 years but even with the more open access it's still very fiddly
to fit the flange. I had to change the gasket a couple of years ago.
Putting it there also gives better visibility of the inside of tank when the
sender
unit is out (easier to fish out the washer you drop trying to install the
flange !)
I put my unit in before it came a Europa supplied kit so there is a chance the
dimensions are different now, but I assumed it was the same unit.

headrests as it can't be bent or cut down.
