MG MGA - temperature gauge replacement

I am rewiring my 1959 MGA convertible and have removed the dash. I need to know if the temperature probe with cable comes off of the gauge and if it does, how do I do it? Do I have to remove the probe from the engine block and thread it thru the firewall or can I remove it fro the gauge. The oil pressure cable screwed off . thanks

It must be removed from the engine and pulled out thru the dash. It is a sealed tube so be careful not to kink it, or crack it. They are not cheap to have repaired, or replaced.
