Trans temp install help

A buddy of mine wants me to help him install a tranny temp guage but I'm lost on it. I told him I could find out. Anyone know of a link with pics or a good walk through?

Thanks.

if the trans is an e4od or a 4r100; on the drivers side of the trans just under and foward of the shift linkage is an inspection plug, you remove that plug(some fluid may come out) and screw the sensor in there. the rest is just mounting the gauge and hooking up power and ground

Thanks for the help guys. Now if I could get him to bring truck over he'd be set. But he's lazy.
