[QUOTE="UPCguy, post: 1268348, member: 564342"] Look at any Pioneers? My pioneer is directly under 2 vents in my chevy beretta. In fact the trim piece that you have to pull out to install/unistall the stereo has the 2 top vents built into it. An idea I just had. If you look at like 8mm computer case fans, they are can be found cheap online, you could probably strip off the plugs, and just use the negative and positive wires to connect to power somewhere, though I have no idea where you would hook it up to, unless you wired it into the harness at the back of the unit. But those fans also typically come with 4 holes drilled into the 4 corners of them so you can mount them into a computer case. Maybe if you took some zip ties and used those to mount a couple of them somewhere near where the head unit is getting hot, and set them funnel air away from the head unit, whereever you can put them. Perhaps a setup like that would be enough to take some of that heat off of your head unit. Also I don't know if you would introduce noise into your sound system or not. But it's an idea........ Or if you go somwhere, and get another stock head unit with cd player and maybe high sensitivity speakers to make up for the lower power output??? Just an idea. [/QUOTE]
