Try this http://gear.ign.com/articles/714/714899p1.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;, or you could just immerse your whole 360 into a sealed deionized distilled water bath.

"Quote"

The kit is priced at $394.99, which makes it just about as expensive as a brand new Xbox 360 itself

i have one of these on both projo tv in the game room
the tv as a over heating "stk" problem in its original state

the stk would only work about 6 months then burn out.
after mounting a fan on the back of the tv (takes power from in the tv)
they have been going strong for years now.
here is a picture.
its dark i was not going to take the tv off its stand. ;)

its cheap, but you would have to come up with a 110 power plug to put on it.
that should not be to hard
hell cut the cord off the big ass fan laying on top of your 360. :D :D :D
have a look.

I was gonna say there are 250mm fans that would probably work.
