I purchased and installed an inexpensive ($1 12-volt fan from Radio Shack. Here is a link:

Built a small bracket and mounted it on a rib behind the avionics stack. It is powered on automatically when I turn the Avionics Master switch on. It's quiet, small, lightweight, and seems to be doing the job.
Just another suggestion...

I'm having Stein install avionics cooling fans for my panel but I also have put in a couple of computer fans in the glare shield for defrosting but I think this will also allow for some of the heat coming from the avionics to vent through these holes. I've attached a photo of the holes in my glare shield. The picture was before I installed the fans. I think these holes will also help with the cooling process.

Wayne,
The glare shield looks great, very nice work. I wish I had prepped mine better prior to putting on the windscreen. I got a little too exited about making progress and it definitely made life tougher.
