Chris,
The single flat type sacheal works best as you describe but Bernie had his and I had mine. I did have it in front of the fans and it did not effect the temp at all. I carried my infered temp gun and checked it when stopped for fuel. There was no difference in the temps. Also the photo is not a good one as it does not show that I only blocked about one third of one fan. The other fan was only blocked about 25%. The best thing was those cheapo cup holders as they were so handy. It was so nice to be able to put a hot cup of coffee or a bottle of water there and not have it spill.
Phil, I like the slime because it will plug a hole up to a 1/4" in size. anything bigger and I call a tow truck.
