For the tranny cooler it is quite simple. . . Go pick up a kit for the B&M or which ever brand you perfer. . . locate the rubber lines on the transmission that lead to the radiator. . . If it just like my V6 Solara than the shortest line is the return line. . . you take off the return line and attach a new one from the radiator to the new cooler than a line from the cooler to the transmission. . . Mount the transmission cooler some where infront of the A/C condenser and you are done. . . So for a better understanding now the tranny fluid will run through the original cooler in the radiator and into the new cooler than back into the transmission. . .

I think that depends on where and when you drive your car.
From my understanding there are two schools of thought.
1. From trans to new cooler and then to the original radiator.
2. And then from the trans to the original radiator and then to the new cooler.
On the first, your transmission will almost always have the same operating temp. On the second your transmission will have a cooler than normal temp. Transmissions work best at normal operating temps. And I don't know what is the optimal temp.
What we are trying to avoid is overheating of the transmission.
#2 is fine if you live in warmer climates, but if you live in cooler climates your trans will never get up to optimal operating temp.
You tell me.
I'm here to learn.
I live in Wisconsin and did the first. (It's was also recommended by TRD in the trans cooler I bought from them.)
