I won a rearview mirror off EBAY that has the compass, and outside temp display on it. I have to install the temp sensor somewhere on the outside of the car. Does anyone have nay tips on the best location for the sensor?

I bought a Beretta digital dash with an outside temp sensor. The temp sensor was in front of the radiator and over to the side so it wouldn't get direct wind on it. I'm going to mount mine up under the front fascia.

All of the vehicles that I am familiar with that have the temp sensor has the thing in the same place.....if front of the radiator as high as you can get it.

Thanks, always wondered where the factory location was. We mounted ours in the driver's side mirror bezel. Short run, followed the existing wires, thru the existing grommet. Seems to be accurate.
