Well, if you do that, I'll break with tradition and update my hijack kernel (yes, I do have a fan and controller).

FWIW, my fan didn't really help my overheating problem. The only time I overheated was when the weather was really cold (Alaska) -- like 10 below zero or colder. This meant I had to run the defrosters at full tilt to keep the windshield clear, and the empeg is mounted in a dead-air space in the dash with the main defroster ducts running close by. When the empeg got hot enough to turn on the fan, it was just blowing air through it that was at least as hot as the empeg, and shortly the overheat alarm would sound. I could cool it down pretty darn quick by pulling it out of the dash and holding it out the window as I drove. About 30 seconds of that (don't try this at home, kids, unless you're wearing gloves) and I could pop it back into the dash for another half hour or so. Gee, I wonder how much I'm going to miss Alaska once I'm living in Mexico?

Edit: If anyone cares (not that there's much reason that anybody should care) I have posted a slide show of my Mexican condominium here on Shutterfly. (Click on the full screen icon near the upper right of the picture frame to get the best effect) Hmmm... bug in Shutterfly's UI. When I go to full screen, the pictures don't advance automatically. Just click anywhere in the picture and it will advance to the next. YMMV.
