I think a lot of engines could benefit from this sort of thing in winter. I've noticed the Matrix holds a rock solid 188 degrees on the highway. Today I also noticed once I got off the highway and hit normal low speed roads, my engine temp dropped to 166! That's quite a drop off. Time to reinstall my lower grill block again! However, when summer rolls around I wouldn't want that extra insulation in there.
