Default Autometer AFR Wire length

Want to mount it in an A-pillar guage but the wires aren't long enough to run under the dash to the ECU

Being an electrical illiterate can anyone tell me the best wire/connectors to use to extend the cables?

Preferrable something I can pick up from Maplins

Thanks.

For signals where changes in mV affect readings, the only way to do it properly is to solder IMO

Also, some 16/02 wire (or called 0.5mm) will be good, don't use single strand stuff, like telephone extension wire, for example.

Not sure about the Autometer gauge, but the LamdaLink comes with screened cable due to the small voltages involved.
