Default Low oil sensor, what did you do with it?

So maybe I am forgetting where I have see this before? Maybe not, and a search turned up nothing. I installed my flyin miata oil pan a couple weeks back, but there is no threaded connection for the low oil sensor on the side of the pan, what did you guys do with it?

Throw the sensor in the trash or add a bung to the pan.

Sorry been off line for a bit. Yep I just taped up the wire in the harness and sold the sensor with the pan. FM and V8R both use a standalone harness so they don't have the extras like that in it. You might want to be sure the engine computer looks at that before you put a bung in the pan. I think it does but it could come from some other module like the body computer.
