For steam gauges: Altitude Encoder, Altimeter & VSI are tied into the static lines Airspeed is tied into both static & pitot
This should be done via a plastic pipe-thread to hose-barb adapter. Can't say if it's supposed to go where the plug-with-hole is on your perticular altimeter.... Since static pressure inside the cabin can be mildly different from that outside the plane, you should not rely on inside-cabin pressure for your primary static source (it can be OK as an alternate, however, if you equip your plane with an alt-static valve).
