So here is my idea. Fan pushes air through the cooler
Cut multiple 3inch holes in trunk floor, to size of cooler. Place cooler face down so fan can push air through the cooler to the bottom of the car. This area should be a negative pressure area to help draw air through cooler plus the push of the fan. Open all rubber plugs in front valence area in front of front trunk. Open corresponding area in front valence under front bumper. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sawzall-smiley.gif)
Place either ducting from front trunk bulkhead or just use something like wooden spare tire cover to seal bottom area of the trunk from upper area. Sealing bottom area into a fresh air chamber forcing air through cooler and out bottom of trunk.

Suggestions or comments (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sawzall-smiley.gif)
