Replacement "T" hose for 1995 2.0l Jetta

OK. So the "T" hose on the side of the engine toward the front of the car is toast. So you buy a new one. But the old one had a receptacle for a temperature sensor and the new one does not. The original hose is not available, even from VW. Now what?

Well, on the 1995 Jetta my son has, one moves the sensor to the fitting on the rear (driver's side) of the cylinder head, where a plug used to be. The wires reach. The sensor fits. It all works. Life is good.

(Now, for extra added credit, figure this out from your memory of the stuff in the engine compartment and phone calls from your wife and son who are frantic...)

Hope this helps someone else.
