I seriously doubt 40-120 degrees C is correct. 40 degrees would feel just barely warm to the touch. 100 degrees is just enough to boil water, so 120 degrees isn't that much more than that. At those temperatures, even very mild plastics would have no problem being in direct contact with it.

I do hope you are successful though! Just be careful.

Quick - with the NUKE REGS getting changed you won't be able to use them to brighten you your interior! A 100MegaTon Blast makes it real easy to find your Doritos

That is what I am thinking. But I am guessing it's not gonna be too bad since u wont have reverse on for longer than 10 min.
