EK D5 top + temp sensors?

I'm ordering parts for my new build and I really want to have temp sensor for my liquid loop. I'll order the EK D5 X-TOP Rev. 2 but right now I'm wondering can I install temp sensor directly to it?
http://www.dazmode.com/store/images/D5_X-top_2.jpg

It has 3 G1/4" threaded holes, one for input, one for output and one for the stock plug. However I haven't been able to find any proper pic about the plug so I have no idea will these temp sensor fit straight into the top. These are my options:

1st option, I prefer this one because it comes with display...

... but the Bitspower temp sensor is a lot shorter, so it has greater chances to fit, right?.

Please guys, help me out here :shrug:

What about http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/inteseforaqa.html with a male-to-male adapter attaching it to the pump top?

I think they make one that has a male end as well, but I can't find it right now.

Hmm, looks like the first one I posted (with the double female thread) plus a G1/4 male-to-male is the way to go, then. :up:

I used a bitspower temp sensor and a shot adapter to lengthen it out a tad, and shoved it in the spare outlet port of my d5 x-top. connected it to my rampage 2 extreme temp thingo's and worked a charm.
