I just received the Temp Sender (black 1 pole sensor, part number 005 542 26 17) and ACC Temp Sensor (blue 2 pole sensor, part number 008 542 45 17) from the Parts Shop. (Really quick ship, btw...)

It seems like a pretty straight forward replacement (i.e. detach wires, unscrew sensor, install new sensor, reattach wires). Before I actually go ahead and replace these parts, is there anything I have to know or do before attempting to R&R as described above? Any gaskets, sealant, lubricant or whatnot that needs to be applied?

Wanted to double check...didn't want to create a larger problem by trying to solve a smaller one...

Thanks.

(Sorry for the cross-posting...need help real quick)
