Supermike, my concerns the same. I am not wanting to duct the ac unit and was curious how everyone was doing it. Is the trunk out of the question?

Well, this thread has alot of good info, but not sure how many people have to deal with the extreme heat of AZ - thats why I asked in this thread.

There seems to be alot of drawbacks to the trunk, especially since the conventional ways of cooling with fans and heatsinks will not cool below the ambient temp which can get high in a sealed trunk. That is why I am ducting AC which in my case is easy since I am mounting the PC in the dash below the center AC vent :D
I'd love to see what people have around here. I don't have anything set up, but would really like to see the possibilities...
Edit: BTW I'm in Gilbert
Don't the marshmallow chickens melt in the Arizona sun?
