Mounting a trans temp gauge on torqshift

I want to install a transmission temp gauge and am wondering if there are any tricks to the trade. I have a 2005 with the torqshift. A friend with a 7.3 said he pulled out a plug on the side of the trans, above the pan, and the temp sensor screwed right in. Does the torqshift have something similar? Is it necessary to drill/tap/weld on the pan or is there a really simple way to do this? Thanks for the help.

caprang, installing the tranny temp gauge is super easy. Just got done doing mine. If you have any questions drop me a pm. I took lots of pictures of everything and could email you a few if you needed.
