Peter,
in mine I installed an UrS4 gauge in place of the clock, thus retaining 
100% factory look of the instrument cluster.

In top part of the block there is an unused 10x1 mm treaded port. I 
installed an Audi 200 sender into it and ran two wires to the 
unpopulated positions of the black 4-pin plug in the instrument cluster. 
I don't remember the details, but you should be able to do this if you 
analyse the wiring diagramme in your Bentley.
