Shak - I don't know whether it would help your problem or not.  Most of t=
he=20
recommendations I have seen have been for improving air circulation. =20
However, if you want to try it without committing yourself, I have a coup=
le=20

=2E

I bought them when they first came out, intending to install them in this=
