Boy do I have a solution for you in the buy/sell thread.
What I did with mine (cheap ikea cabinets, mind you) was put a single fan on each end, then drilled a 3" (IIRC) hole inside the cabinet dividers so there was airflow thru the whole thing. The coolers I bought had temp sensors. The only one that is running constantly is the PS3 side. If you ever want to take a look at them running let me know.

I used an old 12 volt DC power supply for an external hard drive I think, 5 minutes of stripping/soldering and I had a decent, cheap, thermal controlled fan system. |
That's exactly what these coolerguys fans are. I'm rather electrically challenged, so they come with the 12v/AC adapter which was good for me. Your solution was probably $75 cheaper though. Nice work! Interested to see it if you get a chance to post pics.

Thanks - I forgot to mention that. If you do order from coolerguys make sure you install them so the air is blown out of the cabinet.
