I am in the process of installing a outside air temperature sender on my Westfalia. The digital gauge requires a simple K or J type thermocouple for input. Where is the best place to mount it to get the most accurate temperature in both town and highway driving? I want to avoid places like the grille as there is the possibility of a super cooling effect if it is wet and wind is blowing on it. I also want to avoid any heat sources like the radiator and such too. I was thinking maybe in the forward section of the rear intake tunnel for the engine air...
