i ran across that one the other day when i was searching all the sites that
people posted (OEM retailers). it looks good, but i was thinking that i
could possibly bend a new piece of aluminum, with more surface area (for
heat), and rerivet it to the mount. i'd like a fully enclosed unit (the one
i referenced even has a gasket to close against the hood), but may have to
fab something up if no one makes one.

thanks for the link, jim.
