Ok, I’m going to revise the recommendation for the Dakota Digital temp sensor, I went out and plugged it in and the temp read too high, about 135 and the ambient temp is mid 80’s. The sensor in the housing read 86 degrees so I tried another GM sensor and it read the same so that’s probably a better option, part number 213-4514, I bought several sensors trying to find a thread pitch that would fit the threaded hole in the Fleece housing with no luck. The GM sensor is M12 x 1.5 so that is the thread pitch you’ll need.
I wonder if there's enough meat left in the fleece housing to drill and tap to that thread pitch so you wouldn't need an adapter

It looks like there is, I haven’t drilled it out though.

I have the heater installed in that picture, if you aren’t using the heater the housing comes with this plug you could drill and tap too.

Very true. It gets cold enough where I'm at I'd use the heater. As a matter of fact if I'm correct, I believe I should be able to wire the heater through the FASS WIF delete plug and everything should just plug right in and the Jeep won't know the difference.
