That is where my new thermostat sits as well... Scared the hell out of me that I had put it in upside down or something on my test drive because my temp gauge used to sit right above the white block marker and if I turned on the heater when it was cold out, I could make the needle plumet down into that white block. It was nice to have heat in the mountains with the new thermostat.
