Monitor Temperature of Hatch Area (Neat if you have the cargo cover)

The pictures below speak for themselves. Very simple. Could this be a STICKY?

I did keep a lot of musical equipment back here. I won't be for extended periods of time, for sure. It's up to 90F under my cargo cover/hatch area at 9AM to 6PM. I'm in the piedmont area of North Carolina.

I don't know that I would really stick the lead anywhere in the hatch area; I just assume let it sit back there. I don't know what area would make the most sense to attach it anyway. 90F one side 90F generally on the other, right?

I also like the backlight on this display. I can tap the bottom of the unit with my foot and have it light up. I don't know that I'll keep it there indefinately, but, it's nice right now. inconspicuous and slick. $10.00 from advanced auto parts.

I immediately took the rear seat head rests off when I purchased my fit May of 2006 because no one is ever in the back except my baby girl in her car seat. Much better sight in the rear view as well.

I just had my 30,000 mile servicing from the dealer. Over $300.00 and a new set of tires.

Thanks for the read. Any thoughts are great.

Me me me me!! I have a cargo cover that cost me a small fortune from the dealer

That is funny, I took my head-rests off in the back too because they obstruct my rear view. As far as the heat issue goes I don't really have anything too sensitive back there so no biggie for me.
