Thanks for the suggestions, Toby.  We learned the e-tape lesson *big time* 
this summer.  While driving along Hwy 101, happily listening to the tunes on 
the stereo, the e-tape on one of the wires melted (105 degrees outside, 
possibly 120 inside the bus) and slid down.  The raw wires touched the 
e-brake mechanism and shorted everything out.  We though we lost the stereo, 
but luckily didn't.

Oh yeah, I also learned the "don't turn off the bus when it's hot" lesson 
that same day! :)
