Default transmission temperature gauge

I was wondering if there is any way of installing a temp gauge to the transmission, either at the box or somewhere inline? Has anyone done this before? any advise would be greatly appreciated

id say it would be easy to rig up in your line TO your transmission cooler
or you could be a ricer and have 2 . 1 TO and 1 FROM your tranny cooler.. so you see how well its working!

most truck spare parts places will also have transmission temp gauges as they are fitted standard in many trucks, but that looks like a good kit if it fits the henry.
