I am installing a standalone GPS receiver (right) as well as a GPS antenna "puck". It is rated to 185 degrees F but has electronics in it.
Options are outside, glareshield or top of engine compartment on a metal deck.
For those who measured engine compartment temps, what temps would this unit be seeing under the cowl?
The shell is black plastic so it will absorb quite a bit of heat if it is on the glare shield as well.
Thanks for any input.
