Well they must have changed the design cause mine is separate just like the Autometer. In fact, I used the Autometer instructions. The wiring was identical, right down to the un-equal length wires at the probe.

Tranny probe wires of un-equal length? I think you are referring to the pyro probe. At any rate, the gauges look good, although your bulbs appear to be a bit bright. You might want to tie them into a separate dimmer. Congrats on getting them done!

Boy do I feel like a Tard

You are 100% correct. When I read the word Probe, I immediately thought he was referring to the EGT Probe. Didn't even compute that he was referring to the Trans Temp Sender. Oh well, either way, that "probe" fit fine too.
Gauge lights are perfect, camera just shows it a little imbalanced.

and now for the all important daytime pic:

look great, dont want to burst your bubble, but if your running ID files, you will peg that 30LB in a heart beat, you need a 60lb gauge. i have a 35lb gauge, it has been pegged a couple of times already. although i wont hit 60, i need to get the one my self.

Well so far it has gotten to 26lbs. Really don't mat it that often since for some reason, my truck has more power at 1/2 to 3/4 throttle than full.
Been told it is the injectors. Either way, for me 30 psi will be enough.

BTW, here is a pic of the EGR Probe install and the Trans Temp Sender.
