The fancier GM cars have 'em mounted right behind the grill.. My
Toronado has it mounted right behind the grill, in a little enclosure
so that the air flows over it as the car moves.

In response to your note about what the temp sensors on your car
did... on the Toro, it uses one sensor to get outside temp, one for
inside temp, one looking up that the sun shines on so it can tell how
hot the sun is and adjust A/C accordingly, then it has a sensor in the
high side and another in the low side monitoring the freon temps...
so, the climate control system has a total of FIVE temp sensors! (go
figure)
