: :Having done this very thing on a Radio-Shack sort of level, I would recommend :mounting the sensor at the very front of the car, as far in front of the bumper i recall one GM system ( high end, either corvette or caddilac ) which supposedly got the external temperature fouled up because the sensor picked up the exhaust from the car in front of you. I found it hard to believe...but if your thermometer reads 200F maybe you should put the sensor someplace else :-) -- / george jefferson \/ * george@mech.seas.upenn.edu
