Trans temp guage retrofit?

I want to replace my stock cluster with an ESKY esv plat. cluster with a trans temp guage. Is this swap possible if my truck does not have a trans temp guage
now? Seems like all I would need is a trans temp sender and wiring/patience... anyone done this?

Yes, it's wired already.
I swapped to a SS cluster and the trans temp gauge works great, fairly accurate too.

So I don't have to buy any extra parts? Just plug in the new cluster and it will work? That would kick ***!

For your '05, all you'll need is an '05 cluster and off you go. No additional wiring needed! I got mine thru my dealership already calibrated with my odometer reading.
