What is the transmission line fitting kit part number?
I installed the standalone transmission cooler yesterday. Removing the bumper is easy, but tedious. The trans cooler fits long ways across the condenser and it is a VERY tight fit between the radiator support and the condenser. It is sandwiched in between. Pulling the clip out of the lower radiator trans cooler line is tough, with very little room to maneuver. I also did not have to add any trans fluid.
I drove the car to the shop (to fix a fan issue), so I never got it on a long cruise but I noticed that the temperature climbed slowly, as expected. I will know more in a few days how it cools.
The cooler I got, came with everything I needed. I should never have bought the extra hose (Hayden 106), as I had plenty left over.

You might want to go back and check your fluid. There's no way possible a cooler gets installed without needing more fluid
How much will it hold? I would be surprised if it can even accept half a quart max. I didn't notice enough difference on the stick; it was still right around the full mark. When I get it back from the shop, I'll double check it.

That is possible I suppose. I checked the fluid after driving it fully warmed. I turned the care off, popped the hood and checked.
FYI, today was the first day I got to drive my typical 65-70 minute drive to work.
Before numbers: 195-205 average
After numbers: 155-165 average
A 35-40 degree drop!
I also notice that the trans temp gauge shows a bit warmer than actual. I can have the car parked for days and it shows about 7-8* over ambient.
