Default 06 sti rear diff into gc8

Im doing a conversion to my car, inc gearbox, diff, hubs etc..

The old r160 diff does not have a sensor on it that i can see, the new r180 diff has a sensor on it...

What do i do??

Its not a sensor as such but a thermal switch which triggers a dash light in the case of high temps. Not required
