04.5 Trans Temp guage

2004.5 2500 CTD Quad auto

How would I go about installing a Trans Temp guage as that is all I really need?
I will not violate warranty but I need a trans temp guage.
I dont underestand how this cant be factory equipment. It is very important in a truck made for towing.
Is it just an electrical hookup?
I belive I have room in the little shelf,middle counsel
All that is there is the electronic 4x4 selector
Give me some ideas??

Thanks

You can buy an adapter from massdiesel.com to install a sending unit inline. But I would go the better route myself by purchasing an aftermarket pan with a bung installed that also has a drain plug and holds an additional 2-5 qts. Look around You should be able to find them just about anywhere. I personally am getting mine from dieselperformanceparts.com They are the lowest price with the best quality I could find.
