ok i have it installed in the dash, i have the light wired up, but i just need to know where i can get the power, i want it so it turns on/off with the jeep, and the hardest part is where to i mount the sender, do i have to drill/tap a hole in the tranny?! and where?! any help would be awsome! thanks!

Do you have a tranny cooler?(tow package came with one) If so that is a easy spot to mount it, in the light going TO the cooler. Not as accurate as drilling and tapping the tranny somewhere but a heck of a lot easier and works!
 
im not sure, i have the internal tranny cooler in the rad., and i dont get what u mean?! sorry im dumb:D, and ya i didnt wanna drill and tap the transmission...
 
The transmission cooler splices into the lines. The sender splices into the line. There's a + lead coming from that to accessory power.
 
hhmmm ok, i saw the tranny lines , but no sender lines?!do u got a pic?!
