Has anyone fitted new type of fuel strip from motorworks? Its needs soldering to original 4 wires which looks easy, but the new fuel strip has a square box, does the square box attach to fuel strip somewhere ? Thanks

See below for fitment instructions:
1. On the original fuel strip, firstly remove the original strip from the plastic housing with the assistance of a flat bladed screwdriver to open up the plastic clip at the one end. Once this has been done, the sensor can be unplugged and the strip removed.
2. Now you can feed the new strip in to the black plastic housing. Push the strip in to the housing until you get to the sensor; push this in until it seats.
3. Snip the wires from the old fuel sensor so that you can then connect up to the exposed wires on the new fuel sensor, making use of the existing wiring connector. Connect the wires up, matching the colours as you go. We suggest soldering the wires for a good, solid connection. Cover the soldered connection with heat shrink.
4. Refit to the sensor to the bike, and calibrate just like the original sensor using a tool such as the Hex GS-911.

the calibration would be best done before fitting or totally empty tank ? - it must be done 100% dry with no fuel anywhere or you'll have funny readings
this is a local UK retailer for the Argentinian strip? but with no doubt inflated pricing - if it included the postage the price would be OK - manu website says they will soon upgrade them to a plug and play connection

6 minutes in shows how to split the original strip housing. Not GS but the same type of strip.
Or this one from linked from Motorworks website.
