So, I went to the source (isn't the internet handy?) :

There is still a need for wiring, but those assemblies are pretty straight forward.

There already is a tranny cooler in the radiator. I suggest you flush the tranny fluid anyway, at least every 50K miles.
When towing, the owner's manual says to down shift on long uphill grades to help cool the tranny fluid. Do this when you notice the car slowing down and you are giving it a lot more gas pedal to maintain speed.
