I must have replaced it around 4-5 years ago I am thinking..

I get to work around 9am, parked the car and it sat there till I left at 1pm for an MD appt.. 4 hours, but it was in the sun, and about 40+ degrees outside. I can see the sun warming up the engine compartment as I have Steel Grey Metallic, and the inside gets toasty even in 40 degrees if she's been sitting in the sun.
